Another station which has seen extra traffic recently because of the Mt Hatfield crisis.

Pilning is another station where, if you missed your train, you could be dealing with an extremely long wait for the next one

Appledore is also a fair walk form the place it claims to serve.

Appledore was the first station I knew of like this - I was only eight when I first came across the fields in which its station stands.

Yeovil Junction is the busier (based on number of services) of the stations with the same town prefix.

Strathcarron is served almost exclusively by class 158s

I think you could have even dropped the word almost from that sentence ;)

At Windsor & Eton Central the station buildings are also used for a non-railway-related purpose. (Achnasheen station building serves as a postal distribution point even though all mail in the area travels by road now; Windsor & Eton Central is mostly a tourists' shopping centre.)

Bradford Interchange is also the southernmost of two termini stations in a settlement. (I realise that many services serve BDI without terminating, but it's still in terminus by definition.)

And yes, Central is further south than Riverside.

Sadly, Chester was also the scene of a rail crash, but despite a massive fire there was fortunately no loss of life.

Leicester is another station where Underground 'S' stock on delivery must avoid the platform roads due to it being out of gauge.
