Ham Street railway station is a Grade II listed stop on the Marshlink line in the village of Hamstreet, Kent, between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws. Services are provided by Southern.

Location

The station is on a dual-track section of the unelectrified Marshlink Line. Train services are provided by Southern and operated by Class 171 Turbostar diesel trains.[1]

The booking office - open on Mondays to Saturdays mornings - is located in the main station building on the Ashford-bound platform. The two PERTIS passenger-operated self-service ticket machines - one on each platform - have now been removed and replaced with Ticket Vending machines on each platform,[2] which allows a ticket to be purchased from any origin, as opposed to just from Ham Street. The PERTIS passenger-operated self-service machines were installed in connection with a Penalty Fares Scheme in 2008.

History

The station was built by the South Eastern Railway as one of four original stops on the line from Ashford to Hastings (the others being Шаблон:Rws, Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws). It opened on 13 February 1851. A goods station was added later in the year.Шаблон:Sfn

Along with several other stations on the line, Ham Street opened with staggered platforms, allowing a crossing across the railway from one to the other.Шаблон:Sfn After several accidents and near misses, a temporary footbridge was provided in 2014, replacing the previous flat crossing of the railway.[4] It was replaced by a permanent bridge in 2017.[5]
