Peterborough Station Gets Improved
Peterborough station is one I used to use a lot, as I changed from trains from East Anglia to the North. It is getting improved.
It certainly needs it and hopefully, the city will get the station it deserves.
Changing Trains at Peterborough
WHen I went North on Wednesday to Edinburgh, I deliberately arranged to have an hour between getting to Peterborough from Ely and then leaving for the North, so that I could get some lunch.
Queensgate Centre, Peterborough
As you can see from tyhis picture taken from just outside the station, the Queensgate Shopping Centre is not too far away and it has a large Marks & Spencer with a Cafe Revive and a Waitrose. So I walked there and had a nice gluten-free salmon salad in the Cafe Revive. The offerings were better than those in the station.
I do hope that when they improve Peterborough Station, that they improve the access to Queensgate, as there is dual-carriageway in between and the bridge is difficult for anyone with limited movement like myself or someone perhaps elderly or with a child in a buggy.
