Abingdon Junction railway station was a junction station for the branch line to Abingdon. It opened on 2 June 1856 along with the branch, and was closed and replaced by Radley railway station on 8 September 1873. Radley station was in a more convenient place for access. It is not clear whether Abingdon Junction station was purely for interchange purposes, or if passengers could walk to Radley village.[1]
