The signal box remained in use until June 1982. The original single platform was built on the north side of the line next to a level crossing. A passing loop was installed here in 1897 which necessitated the construction of a second platform to serve trains towards Westbury. The line was doubled from Heytesbury in 1899 and on to Wylye in 1900.[4] When an army camp was built at Codford in 1914[5] a {{convert|2.75|mi|km}} branch line was built connecting it to the station.[6] The branch was taken over at the end of the First World War by the Great Western Railway but closed in 1922. ServicesThe station was served by stopping trains on the {{stnlnk|Westbury}} to {{stnlnk|Salisbury}} line. Trains still run between Warminster and Salisbury, but no longer stop at anywhere in between.[7] {{Historical Rail Start}}{{rail line|next={{stnlnk|Wylye}}|route=Great Western RailwaySalisbury branch line|previous={{stnlnk|Heytesbury}}|col=001385}}{{end box}} References1. ^1 {{Butt-Stations}} {{Closed stations Wiltshire}}2. ^Station photo {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071008064035/http://eshop.wiltshire.gov.uk/getshopitem.php?id=88 |date=2007-10-08 }} 3. ^Station Road 4. ^{{cite book |last = Oakley |first = Mike |title= Wiltshire Railway Stations |year=2004 |publisher=The Dovecote Press |location=Wimbourne |isbn=1-904349-33-1 }} 5. ^History of camp{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 6. ^Map of branch line {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070811005331/http://www.englandpast.net/education/worksheets/worksheet11_codford.pdf |date=2007-08-11 }} 7. ^Current service 5 : Railway stations opened in 1856|Rail transport in Wiltshire|Railway stations closed in 1955|Disused railway stations in Wiltshire|Former Great Western Railway stations |
