Шаблон:Short descriptionШаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station Broome railway station serves the villages of Broome and Aston on Clun in Shropshire, England. It is on the Heart of Wales Line Шаблон:Convert south west of Шаблон:Stnlnk. Trains that serve the station are operated by Transport for Wales.
History
Originally opened as "Broom and Aston".[1] Broome station was built by the Knighton Railway company on their branch line between Шаблон:Stnlnk and Knighton,[2] opening with the line in 1861. In 1895 a wind engine was erected at the station for the London and North Western Railway by John Wallis Titt.[3]
The line was double track and the station had two platforms until the 1960s,[4] but the line was singled in 1965 and the station now has a single platform. The station buildings have since been demolished and replaced with a bus shelter structure.
Facilities
The station has no permanent buildings aside from a single timber waiting shelter, though it does have a CIS display and a timetable poster board. However, it has no public telephone or customer help point. Step-free access is provided via a steep gravel ramp and steel gate from the entrance and car park, which has been proven to be unsuitable for wheelchair users.[5]
Services
There are five trains a day in each direction from Monday to Saturday (plus an extra northbound service to Shrewsbury for commuters on Mondays to Fridays), and two services on Sundays. This is a request stop and passengers intending to board must make a clear signal to the driver whilst alighting passengers must request the stop from the train guard.[6]
