Hello, can anybody tell me if either of these stations are open 24 hours, and you can stay on them from like 0140 till 0530?

Cheers

Might be worth ringing up. Security staff are being a bit funny with people at the moment, especially taking photographs

As long as you have access to food supplies and you can keep warm with traffic running through, I don't see why not!

Anyway, at night, more things happen, especially Carlisle, and when litchurch Lane were still doing overhauls for FGW Mk.3s, more stock came at night than in the daytime.

all depends on the individual staff really, at newport we man the station 24hours, same for cardiff, but I know some of my colleagues won't have anyone of the station whereas some of us don't mind if you keep a low profile....

Suspect since the mails mainly finished toleration of enthusiasts overnight has dropped.

Leicester station staff are incredibly friendly when they're open, Wolverhampton not bad either. That said Wolves only has about a 90 minute service break anyway.
