Changes

R.V.J. Butt's "''The Directory of Railway Stations''"<ref>''The Directory of Railway Stations: details every public and private passenger station, halt, platform and stopping place, past and present (1st ed.)'' Butt, R. V. J. (1995), Sparkford: Patrick Stephens Ltd. ISBN 978-1-85260-508-7></ref> is commonly cited on Wikipedia and elsewhere as an authoritative work on station names.<ref group="note">Developing this Wiki has highlighted several apparent errors in Butt's 'authoritative' book. He states that [[Wyre Forest Line#Wyre Forest|Wyre Forest]] opened with the rest of the Tenbury Branch on 1 August 1864; [[Bibliography#Books|Beddoes & Smith (1995)]] and [[Bibliography#Books|Mitchell and Smith (2007)]] confirm it was not until 1 June 1869. He also states that Alveley Colliery Sidings "opened after 1915" and was then "renamed Alveley Colliery Halt". [[Alveley Sidings]] opened in 1939 at what is now [[Country Park Halt]], while [[Alveley Halt]] was a short distance away and did not open until 1944.</ref> Butt refers to the GWR station being renamed "Coalport West" during the BR era. This change may have been made for internal or administrative reasons, but the name "Coalport" continued to appear until closure in [[Engineer's Line References]], [[Timetables in commercial service|BR Working Timetables]], on the platform running in boards and even on the [[The Severn Valley Railway under GWR/BR ownership#Closure|1963 BR notice of closure of the line]].
