Ashley Down Station – 28th September 2024

Ashley Down Station opened today, so I went to visit and took these pictures.

Note.

1. There are four tracks and two platforms.
2. The numerous numbers of Class 165 trains buzzing around.
3. I saw several Hitachi Class 80x   and CrossCountry passing trains passing through.
4. I arriving in and left in Class 165 trains.
5. All the Class 165 trains appear to have been refurbished.
6. The station has stairs and a pair of lifts.
7. There is bicycle parking and a car drop-off area.

It is certainly, a station with a long list of features.

The station is also in walking distance of Bristol Rovers ground.

This map shows the two locations.

Note.

1. The football ground is in the North-West corner.
2. Te staiton is in the South-East corner.

A Bristolian told me it will be 15-20 minutes walk.
