Title: The history of the Marlow Donkey Post by: grahame on July 10, 2023, 20:24:32 https://www.nrmfriends.org.uk/post/the-marlow-donkey
Quote On 28th June 1873 the Great Marlow Railway Company’s line opened for passenger traffic. At two miles and 61 chains long, it became the branch from Bourne End to Marlow, Buckinghamshire. Marlow station was then named Great Marlow and Bourne End was Marlow Road. Marlow Road became Bourne End in 1874 and Great Marlow stayed as such until 1899 when the “Great” was removed.
