Westcott railway station was a small station built to serve the village of Westcott, Buckinghamshire, and nearby buildings attached to Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild's estate at Waddesdon Manor. It was built by the Duke of Buckingham in 1871 as part of a short horse-drawn tramway to allow for the transport of goods from and around his extensive estates in Buckinghamshire and to connect the Duke's estates to the Aylesbury and Buckingham Railway at Quainton Road. A lobbying campaign by residents of the town of Brill led to the tramway being converted for passenger use and extended to Brill railway station in 1872, becoming known as the Brill Tramway.

  • 韋斯科特站(英語:Westcott railway station)是位於英國東南部白金漢郡的車站,主要服務鄰近村落及沃德斯登莊園。車站在1871年由興建,用於貨運鐵路,運送貨物進出其房屋,並於連接。在1872年,居民組成的遊說集團成功遊説讓車站提供客運服務,並把鐵路延長至布里爾站,建設。 鐵路以低成本建造,使用低質素鐵路機車導致行車速度慢,限制最高時速5英里(8公里)。鐵路曾於1890年代計劃延長到牛津,但後來沒有實現。1899年,大都會鐵路公司接管鐵路營運權。 1933年,大都會鐵路公有化,加入倫敦地鐵網絡,成為大都會線。韋斯科特站成爲此線的一個車站,距離倫敦市中心超過40英里(64公里)。但是,由於認爲設立該站未能盈利,因此該站連同布里爾鐵路在1935年11月30日關閉。車站大樓及其旁邊的建築是布里爾鐵路除外,唯一保存的建築。 (zh)
