Louise I am afraid that Newmarket Railway Station was shamefully demolished in the 1980s, despite being mentioned in Pevsner's The Buildings of England. It was a fine red brick building, of a similar style to the ones which survive at Needham Market and Stowmarket. All that the Newmarket railway station consists of today is a concrete platform further towards the tunnel than the old station. But the old station had fallen into decay and disuse long before demolition, so the prints would have been removed well before the 1980s.
