===Platform extension===
Highley only has a short platform. In winter 1974-75, at the end of the first year of reopening, volunteers extended the southern end of the platform by around 30 feet using platform edge coping stones and diagonal blue brick pattern surface slabs recovered from the former GWR station at Halesowen.<ref>SVR News 34</ref> The platform now stretches all the way to the Barrow [[Highley Station foot crossing|barrow crossing]], which is accessed by a ramp behind the footbridge. The original layout, with a shorter platform and a ramp in front of the old footbridge, can be clearly seen in this photograph.
