The Anonymous Widower

Rochester’s New Station

This morning an article on the BBC, entitled, Rochester’s £26m railway station opens to trains, caught my eye.

So I just had to go and look at Rochester station and take some pictures.

I think the twenty-six million pounds has given Rochester a stylish new station.

• It’s been perfectly positioned to give good access to the City Centre.
• Note that a light-controlled crossing will be added outside the station.
• It’s been built as a gateway to the city and when you arrive you have good views of the river, the castle and the cathedral.
• The toilets must be the best in any smaller station.
• Remember too, that there are still details to finish, like the walls and the railings.

Let’s hope other architects and builders aspire to the high standard that Rochester has set!
