Paul Smith , Sally Salmon
The British Rail era is synonymous with line closures and a reduction in stations, but since the 1980s about 200 stations have been added to the network or reopened. This illustrated survey details their locations, passenger volume and the availability of facilities such as parking and disabled access, and records the dates during which they were operational.
