 With the opening of the Cheltenham line as far as on 1 August 1904, the lines through Honeybourne were quadrupled and two loops were laid.The "West Loop" ran north to west connecting the Cheltenham and Stratford lines, whilst the "South Loop" ran south to east from the Stratford line to the Oxford to Worcester line.Four signalboxes, one at each end of the loops, controlled traffic.
