[edit] Date of renaming
I've done a bit of research into this. The best information I can find is between 1970 and 1977. The Ian Allen Rail Atlas 1970 (ISNB 0-7110-2965-2) shows Great Barr, but by 1977 it had certainly changed to Hamstead, as this is how it is shown in the first edition of Baker's Rail Atlas (ISBN 86093 009 2) published that year. I'll keep looking to see if I can find anything else. – Tivedshambo (talk) 16:58, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
