Future stations

From Bradshaw, the companion guide to On Our Lines
Revision as of 21:45, 13 October 2024 by Jarley (talk | contribs) (→‎Recently opened stations: apparently this wasn't in future, but anyway, Belfast GC open)

This page lists future stations on Britain's railway or tramway networks. Stations are only listed here once work has begun or there is a realistic prospect of the station being completed, rather than those that are simply listed as part of the Restoring Your Railway campaign, for instance. Speculative stations should not be added.
