Living where I do the initials M&SWJ are more normally associated with
the long lost route of a company between Cheltenham and Andover,what
did they stand for in this reference?

Another company with the same name - Midland and South Western Junction,
whose 3.75 mile line linked the Midland at Welsh Harp with the North and
South Western Junction at Acton Wells.

Often known as the Old MS&WJ to reduce confusion. It was eventually
completely taken over by the Midland.
