St Albans City Station

Siding connection to Napsbury Hospital, mostly used to supply fuel to the hospital's boiler house.

Napsbury station and signal box. Opened 1905 to serve the nearby Mental Hospital, but the station closed in 1959 when local services were converted to diesel multiple units. The signal box stayed open until December 1979 when modern signalling was brought into use in readiness for electrification. There is now no trace of the station.

Link from the LNWR line near Park Street to the Midland Railway line, used for the construction of the MR line in the 1860s, but severed thereafter and never used for passenger traffic. Part of the link remained in use as sidings for many years.
