Before Crossrail – Maidenhead
Another Station Almost Ready For Crossrail – Rating 7/10
According to Wikipedia, Maidenhead needs some updating for Crossrail.
The station will undergo significant modification, including the replacement of the existing passenger waiting facilities, a new ticket hall, lifts, a new platform for Marlow branch line services, the introduction of overhead line equipment and the construction of new stabling and turnback facilities to the west of the station.
The expensive lifts have already been installed into the subway.
The statue is of Sir Nicholas Winton and it is good to see a statue of the man. It is also good that it is displayed in such a public place, which is probably almost safe from metal thieves. I have long believed that more works of art should be placed on stations, as you’d generally need a train and a large crane to steal them. This Google Map shows the layout of the station.
