  • Powerstock was a railway station on the Bridport Railway in the west of the English county of Dorset. The station served the villages of Powerstock, and Nettlecombe, which was nearer the railway. Opened with the branch on 12 November 1857, it was called Poorstock until 1860. Consisting of a single platform and bungalow style building, it had a siding. The station was host to a GWR camp coach from 1936 to 1939. Operated by the Great Western Railway, it was placed in the Western Region when the railways were nationalised in 1948. The branch was threatened with closure in the Beeching report, but narrow roads in the area, unsuitable for buses, kept it open until 5 May 1975. The station was unstaffed in 1966. In its final years train services were usually operated by single carriage Class 121 diesel railcars. (en)
