The Foxfield Railway was an industrial line built to link the North Staffordshire Railway to the Foxfield Colliery in 1892. Until the line was closed in the mid-1960s (along with the colliery) it never carried passenger trains. The Foxfield Railway opened a few years later with new stations being built at Caverswall Road and Dilhorne Park [1].
Caverswall Road is built next to the Foxfield Railway's main locomotive shed. The station has a single island (though the line on one side of the island platform goes into the shed), with the usual preserved railway station facilities next to the shed.
