It has its own little train station, yet it's a major hub for the whole nation, and I've only been here once but I definitely liked it. It is a major junction for Wiltshire though and has direct connections to Reading Taunton Penzance London-Paddington Cardiff Portsmouth Swindon Bristol (Temple Meads) Weymouth and London-Waterloo. It also has an amazing Station Cafe and could only score 5 stars.

To-day, Westbury is a moderately important junction station, where the Bristol-Southampton and…read moreBristol-Weymouth services cross the West of England main line from Paddington to Plymouth. It's all a far cry from former times: the station was opened in 1848, on a line from Chippenham, with services being extended to Warminster in 1851, Weymouth and Bath in 1857 and Salisbury in 1856. It continued as a country junction until 1900, when it was rebuilt in its present form as the first part of the new through route from London to Plymouth via Castle Cary. Through services began in 1906, and so began Westbury's golden age as a major junction station. It didn't last long: in 1933, a bypass line was built around the station to the south, for non-stop London-Plymouth expresses. The introduction of High Speed Trains in 1980s brought more decline, as the London-Paignton trains were routed via Bristol, the engine depot closed, staffing at the station was reduced, and the old platform one was closed. To-day, Westbury is expanding rapidly as a dormitory town for Bath and Bristol, and commuter traffic is increasing as a result, to some 300,000 passengers a year. There is an intermittent main-line service to London and Taunton, but the main services are the half-hourly Bristol-Portsmouth trains, and the two-hourly Weymouth service. Additional local services to Bristol are laid on at rush hour, and there are three direct trains a day to London via Salisbury. It can all seem quite busy again at certain times of the day. Station facilities remain basic, however, even if the fine buildings from 1900 have survived: but a new buffet and new toilets are being built, and there is a small waiting room, though ticket office hours remain limited. Most trains use the island platform (2 and 3), although platform 1 remains open for some services. The station has recently been made accessible for wheelchair users and other passengers with disabilities.

It's in between Bristol and Weymouth not too far from civilization. You'll also get trains from Reading going to the Southwest coming through here, but very rarely do trains actually stop here, because it's literally in the middle of nowhere, and not many people need the station. It's cool that it's here though for sure, although it really does feel like it's in the middle of nowhere.

Bruton is a small station serving the historic town of Bruton in Somerset…read more It opened in 1857, originally on the Wiltshire, Somerset and Weymouth line from Chippenham to Weymouth, a single track line although Bruton was provided with a passing loop. From 1906 an extension from Castle Cary to Taunton, coupled with improvements on the Berks and Hants extension railway (from Westbury to Reading) placed bruton on the main Great Western line to the south west. However, today the station has reverted to being served only by trains between Bristol and Wyemouth. Connections to London are provided at Westbury or Bath, and to Taunton and the south-west at Castle Cary. The station has a roughly two-hour service throughout the day, with 3 trains each way on Sundays. It is unstaffed tickets can be bought on the train. There are basic waiting shelters on each platform, a bicycle rack, a small car park, and a footbridge.

I had Grate Expectations of Grateley, and they were not quite met…read more 72 miles from London you will find this wide-open station with uncovered platforms and a tiny futuristic-looking bridge that kind of looks like it could fall down at any minute LOL. It has very straight tracks in both directions and the famous picture I have from when I came here several winters ago is when the whole station and both tracks were covered in snow. It serves the area well, but it's pretty remote and it's nearly a mile from the village itself, so it really feels like it's in the middle of nowhere.

Small twin-track station, on main Bristol/Bath SW line…read more Situated just outside the centre of town (approx 10 - 15 mins walk to the main bus stops outside the Town hall). There's not a great deal by way of amenities - no fancy waiting rooms, refreshments or toilet facilities. It's manned several hours a day for ticket sales and assistance, and there is a decent sized car park right next to it. Mainly used for commuting upline to nearby Bath and Bristol. It's pleasant enough and there's shops selling snacks within ten minutes wlaking distance so it's not out in the sticks or anything. Beware rush-hour though as it gets absolutely choc-a-block on the station around then!

The station opened in 1847 on the line from Southampton to Salisbury (via Eastleigh). In 1865 the route from Andover to Southampton via Romsey and Redbridge opened, making Romsey a junction; also known as the Sprat and Winkle Line, it closed between Andover and Romsey in 1965, but the southern section from Romsey to Redbridge (on the Southampton-Bournemouth line) remained to form the main Salisbury to Southampton line. The Eastleigh to Romsey line closed to passengers in 1967 but reopened in 2003, making Romsey a junction station once more. It is served by the Cardiff/Bristol to Portsmouth service (roughly hourly, half-hourly at peak times) and the Salisbury-Romsey-Southampton-Chandler's Ford-Romsey service, which provides an hourly service in all directions (and thus provides two trains and hour to Southampton, one direct, and one via Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh and Southampton Airport). Facilities include a ticket office (open part time), ticket machines, toilets, waiting rooms, covered bicycle storage, a small cafe (open part-time) and a small car park.

On the line from London to Exeter you will find the Salisbury station, which is one of the main stations along the way. Offering perfect access to the beautiful old Cathedral and the lovely Wiltshire wilderness county town of Salisbury on the plains, and not very far at all from Stonehenge. Also trains from Cardiff to Portsmouth and Brighton come right through here as well so it's quite a big crossing on the railways. It's a lovely old station of brown brick and one of my favourites. It had been growing in usage throughout the middle of the last decade but in the last few years it went down quite a lot which is sad. We hope that it increases again in future.
