Not pushchair friendly - Staines Railway Station

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Staines Railway station is on the Waterloo - Reading line. Trains into the City are quite frequent.

However, the Station is remarkably unfriendly, probably a product of its age.

There are steps up into the station (no ramp), and to cross platforms you have to use a steeply stepped bridge.

Also, there is a very awkward high and broad step up into the train when it (eventually arrives at the platform.

A person on their own with a pushchair is always going to struggle.

 OK, Staines has not got the greatest reputation in the South East, but this is a bit unfair. It does not compare favourably with say, Richmond, but it has all the facilities of a small town, and a...
