This is what you get for watching "Endeavour" on Sunday nights....too much "over-deducement".....:roll:

Peterborough was also opened in 1850 by the Great Northern Railway

 

[David Goddard]

Reading is also undergoing redevelopment at present (granted on a completely different scale) that sees more through platforms and fewer bays.

Also, both stations had just four through platforms prior to work starting.
Peterborough goes to seven while reading increases to nine.

Wool also has the same spelling as a word that can be found in the dictionary

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Dorchester South was also opened in 1847 by the Southampton and Dorchester Railway.

 

[Ivo]

Dorchester South is the only station in Dorchester of two with direct services to London. The same will soon be true of Blackpool North.

 

[gnolife]

Blackpool North is currently the most used station in its settlement, but has not always been. The same can be said for Canterbury West.

 

[Buttsy]

Maidstone East is another station that more correctly could be suffixed with North

 

[Ivo]

According to station usage data for 2011-12, Dover Priory also saw its figures decrease from the previous year by 2.1%.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Adisham was also opened in 1861 by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway and is currently managed by Southeastern.

 

[Trainfan344]

Sandwich is also managed by SouthEastern and also saw a drop in usage according to the 2010/11 figures.

Staplehurst is also in Kent.

Might as well

Come on, young sir. That is MOST unlike an offering from your creative thinking.


Harrow and Wealdstone was also the scene of a railway accident with fatalities recorded.

 

[Robinson]

Finsbury Park has also very occasionally seen use as a terminus for intercity services when the route to the south has been blocked for engineering work.

 

[Welshman]

Newcastle

was the destination of the short-lived 1970's "Highwayman" service designed to compete with the motor coach industry. It was scheduled 6 hours from Finsbury Park to Newcastle, was composed of Mk1 carriages and Cl.40 hauled, and looped several times between Finsbury Park and Newcastle to get out of the way of faster "Deltic" hauled services, platelayers' trolleys, etc.

York

Both have a reasonable curve in it's station!

(New to the game!)

 

[Welshman]

Huddersfield
also had its central through lines removed during its last renovation.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Bristol Temple Meads is also a Grade I listed railway station.

 

[12CSVT]

Derby has many through services which reverse there

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Stockport is also a 6-platform station with a high DfT category rating of "B".

 

[Welshman]

London Kings Cross

also has a platform "0"

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Manchester Piccadilly is also managed by Network Rail

 

[Ivo]

We've had eight consecutive notable stations (maybe even ten if Finsbury Park and Harrow & Wealdstone count)!

So, let's do something about that...

Manchester Piccadilly came 19th in the 2011/12 usage statistics, with 21,333,551 entires/exits. At the other end of the scale, Golf Street came 19th bottom, with a grand total of 212 - less than 0.001% of Piccadilly.

Come on, young sir. That is MOST unlike an offering from your creative thinking.

(New to the game!)

Welcome! I hope you'll enjoy some of our other offerings too...

Barry Links is another station on the east coast of Scotland that was originally opened to serve the needs of the golfing fraternity but now having an extremely sparse railway service.

 

[class222lover]

Holyhead

Also opened in 1851

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Heysham Port also serves the rail travel needs of passengers using a ferry service.

 

[class222lover]

Morecambe

On the same branch line.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Cam and Dursley was also opened in 1994.

 

[Ivo]

Levenshulme also sees Voyagers passing through.

 

[gnolife]

Mauldeth Road is another station used as a cheap one stop ticket for Manchester commuter fare evaders.

Please note that this isn't something I've ever seen fit to try - I'm nearly always making cross Manchester journeys to either the Bolton or New Mills areas.
