Copplestone railway station

Copplestone railway station is on the Tarka Line serving the village of Copplestone in Devon, England. It is on the Tarka Line to Barnstaple, 14 miles 37 chains from Exeter Central at milepost 185.75 from London Waterloo. The station and trains are operated by Great Western Railway.

The station was opened by the North Devon Railway on 1 August 1854. The railway was single track. A passing loop was provided at Copplestone but there was initially only one platform. A second platform was added and in 1873 a ten-lever signal box was built at the northern end of the new platform where there was a view of the goods yard on the other side of the line. Ten years later the line from Copplestone to Yeoford was doubled, the second track being ready for use on 4 November 1883.
