Rugby Road Halt railway station

Rugby Road Halt was a short lived railway station in London on the Hammersmith & Chiswick branch line from South Acton to Hammersmith & Chiswick. The station was opened by the North & South Western Junction Railway in 1909 as an attempt to gain passenger numbers since the opening of the District Line. It consisted of a short wooden platform long enough for one coach. The station closed in 1917.[1][2]
