Rolleson - Fiskerton used to be but no longer is.

Have a look at table 129 or 239 in NRT - most likely Culrain - Invershin springs to mind.

Virtually all shacks on the Heath Low Level to Coryton line are 1 minute apart. Although it doesn't take that long to travel between them!

Invershin-Culrain is one - on the opposite sides of a bridge

Dalreoch - Dumbarton Central
Pollokshields East - Queens Park

You have a lot of potential quizes

Stations it is quicker to walk between then take rail such as Catford and Catford Bridge. I am sure I could do that in 1 minute on a motorbike

Stratford to Maryland at least used to be; not sure which way though.

Several stations on the line to Hayes (Kent) are also in that position; I believe Ladywell to Lewisham is one.

I would have thought that Twickenham to St Margarets is, but apparently not. I can only assume that it is booked to be 90 seconds.

Failed Unit - A good point! How about, say, the Wigan stations?

Chester Road-Erdington are timetabled a minute, and that's a real push.

Looks like MattE2010 has taken my quiz crown. Ah well; it was about three months overdue anyway

Quiz crown? What Quiz Crown? Thanks anyway!

what bout garforth-east garforth?

About two min... but easily 30 secs if you arent stopping at either (like on XC)

Certain services between Ryder Brow and Belle Vue are timed to take 1 minute, others take 2 minutes. In the opposite direction all journeys take 2 minutes.

Haven't got a timetable to hand but surely Maidstone West - Maidstone Barracks must be a contender?

Maidstone East to Maidstone Barracks or West.
Forest Gate to Wanstead Park or Woodgrange Park.
St Pancras to Kings Cross or Euston or Marylebone.

Maidstone East to Maidstone Barracks or West.
Forest Gate to Wanstead Park or Woodgrange Park.
St Pancras to Kings Cross or Euston or Marylebone.

New Cross to St Johns, rochester to Chatham, folkestone west to central, all very close together.

Newcastle to Manors, might not be timetabled for 1 minute but I've done it many times before in about 45 seconds.

 

[Aictos]

Probably doesn't count but City Thameslink and Blackfriars are very very close, you can see the train in the platforms at Blackfriars on platform 1 at City Thameslink.

Depending on the weather!
I have walked between several stations in the Glasgow area if I have missed a train, quicker than waiting for the next train

 

[Mojo]

Montpelier to Redland takes about 1 Min, although is timed to take 2 Min. Definitely not quicker to walk and definitely not quicker to drive as you have to negotiate a give way, four sets of traffic lights and a mini-roundabout!

 

[ChrisTheRef]

Wallasey Village to Wallasey Grove Road

 

[Lampshade]

I would have said Twickenham - St Margarets but as Ivo said they're timed for about 90 seconds, which is weird because I could probably run it quicker than that hock:

None of the stations on the Hayes line are booked 1 minute apart that I can see. Ladywell to Lewisham is 3 minutes.

Stratford to Maryland is 2 minutes.

Romford - Gieda Park is timetabled for 2 mins but ive managed to do it in 1 min 30

I'd definitely think it counts and I was going to say it too!

 

[Mojo]

Stratford to Maryland used to be 1 Min a few years ago when I used that line (albeit on an infrequent basis) which I always thought was a bit optimistic to leave Stratford, do the journey, open doors load and close doors within 40 Secs.

I love the way you can set a specific question and get people posting wrong answers, some that they even admit don't fit. What's the point of answering a question with a wrong answer?

 

[CheapAndNerdy]

Two Bootle, Liverpool stations (New Strand and Oriel Road) are timetabled at 1 minute apart when travelling from New Strand to Oriel road, but 2 minutes in the other direction. So I guess the truth must lie somewhere in between.

 

[jon0844]

Okay, it IS down as 2 minutes on the timetable from Blackfriars to City Thameslink - apologies. I really did think it would be a minute.

Having just checked some services, it seems many of them are On Time at Blackfriars and -1 at City Thameslink. It's obvious why.

 

[richw]

both on falmouth-truro branchline
falmouth Docks- Falmouth town (1minute between departure and arrival)
Falmouth Town- Penmere (1minute between departure and arrival)

(timetable only shows departure times, but i've worked on 2mins at each station as is standard for all calls on falmouth branch)

 

[Dreadnought]

Appleford - Culham on the Didcot - Oxford line are timetabled at 1 minute, not that there are many trains that you can catch to make this journey direct!
