Bodmin General Railway Station. Terminus of the Bodmin and Wenford Railway.


The Great Western Railway opened a terminus in Bodmin on 27 May 1887. The station was originally named Bodmin and, after Nationalisation, became Bodmin General on 26 September 1949, in order to distinguish it from other stations in the area (Bodmin North and Bodmin Road). The line officially closed on 3 October 1983 following the demise of freight traffic from Wenford. The Bodmin and Wenford Railway, a heritage railway, uses Bodmin General as its principal station. Services run to both Bodmin Parkway and to Boscarne Junction; the junction between these two lines is just outside the station which is a terminus.
