Wolverton 
Description
The worlds first town purpose built for the railways. With the opening of the London to Birmingham railway the steam engines could only really manage about 50 miles before needing to be swapped over, and because the carriages were individual units with no facilities there was a need to break the journey to allow passengers to refresh themselves as well. Consequently a Grand Central station was built at the mid-point between the two cities, along with carriage works, engine sheds and factories. That town was Wolverton, which today has been subsumed into being a suburb of Milton Keynes.
