It was located at the head of a {{convert|400|ft|m|adj=on}} long timber pier reaching in the River Medway estuary. The pier was discovered to be in need of repairs in 1896, and had also been damaged by a storm in November of that year. Between 1900–1903, the station was heavily used, as owing to a fire Queenborough pier was unavailable for use. During World War I the Admiralty took over Port Victoria. In 1916, the railway along the pier was shortened to {{convert|93|ft|m}} and a new station building provided, the old one being demolished. By 1931 further deterioration of the pier made it unsafe and a new station was built on the landward side.[1] The train service by this time being just two passenger services per day. In 1941 the pier was demolished and the station closed on 11 June 1951.[2] The Station featured in two Pathé News films recorded in 1939 and 1947, both feature Station Master Stephen Mills.[3][4] {{Disused Rail Start}}{{rail line|previous=Sharnal Street|next=|route=1882-01-11 to 1898-12-31SER Hundred of Hoo Railway|col=FECB09}}{{rail line|previous=Sharnal Street|next=|route=1899-01-01 to 1906-06-30 SECR Hundred of Hoo Railway|col=FECB09}}{{rail line|previous=Grain Crossing Halt|next=|route=1906-07-01 to 1922-12-31 SECR Hundred of Hoo Railway|col=FECB09}}{{rail line|previous=Grain Crossing Halt|next=|route=1923-01-01 to 1947-12-31 SR Hundred of Hoo Railway|col=FECB09}}{{rail line|previous=Grain Crossing Halt|next=|route=1948-01-01 to 1951-06-10 BR(S) Hundred of Hoo Railway|col=FECB09}}{{end}} References1. ^http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/p/port_victoria/ 2. ^{{subbrit|p/port_victoria}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Railway Station|url=https://www.britishpathe.com/video/railway-station-1/|publisher=British Pathé|accessdate=12 October 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Lonely Station Issue Title Is Pathe Pictorial…|url=https://www.britishpathe.com/video/lonely-station-issue-title-is-pathe-pictorial-look/|publisher=British Pathé|accessdate=12 October 2017}} External links
