Sorry, my mistake.

Newcastle Central is another large station where the majority of the platforms are under a vast overall roof.

Above is the last valid posting......

Crewe is also a 12-platform station on a main north-south line.

 

[Esker-pades]

Hereford also has non-stop services to Shrewsbury.

 

[LUYMun]

Hereford used to have a line going to Grange Court, where it interchanges with the Gloucester-Newport line.

Blackburn is also a four-platform station with a DfT category rating of C1.

 

[Springs Branch]

Chester also has regular train services to Manchester via two separate routes, which also arrive at their Manchester terminus from opposing directions.

 

[Esker-pades]

Ormskirk is also partially electrified (3rd rail and not).

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Kirkby is also an interchange station between Merseyrail and Northern services.

 

[LUYMun]

Ormskirk also has a divided platform on a single track.
Whoops, didn't see the second post above

Ellesmere Port is another station which Merseyrail manages, as well as having an interchange with National Rail.

Little Sutton was also opened by the Birkenhead Railway.

The Birkenhead Ralway was a joint railway owned by the GWR and LNWR until nationalisation
Princes Risborough because it is a station on the erstwhile joint railway (GWR/GCR) Bicester to Ruislip

 

[LUYMun]

Until May 2017, a Class 121 "Bubble Car" DMU operated the Princes Risborough-Aylesbury line with shuttle services. Class 121s have also previously worked with Silverlink Trains between Bletchley and Bedford until 2001, making these one of the last first-generation DMUs to operate on public railways in the 21st century.

Bolton is also a five-platform station with a DfT category rating of C1.

 

[Springs Branch]

Salford Central was also opened by the Manchester & Bolton Railway in 1838.

 

[SteveyBee131]

Salford Central is managed and served by Northern. This is also the case at Rochdale, which is a destination or calling point for numerous services through Salford Central.

 

[Esker-pades]

Sunderland also offers connections to a light rail network.

 

[johnnychips]

Skipton also has an infrequent LNER service to London.

 

[SteveyBee131]

Skipton is one of the stations served by the Airedale and Wharfedale electrification. Another such station is Ilkley.

 

[Springs Branch]

Rose Hill Marple is also a present day terminus which was a through station in the past.

 

[johnnychips]

Mexborough is also served by Class 142 Pacers.

 

[SteveyBee131]

Another station managed by Northern, but with other companies trains passing through non-stop is Thorne South.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Builth Road is another station that was opened in 1866 and currently having the lowest DfT category rating of F2.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

The addition of the word "Road" to the name of the station indicates that the station is not located at Builth Wells, but is some distance away on the road to the town. Another example of this is Gwinear Road.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Note that you should only reply with a station on the main BR network (e.g. not Underground or Preserved Railway) that is still open.

Gwinear Road has been closed for many years
