Talk:Exeter St Davids railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
FWIW, I think the other six stations in Exeter are:
- Exeter Central railway station
- St James Park
- Pinhoe railway station
- Polsloe Bridge
- Digby & Sowton
- Exeter St Thomas

[edit] Uniqueness
- St David's is unique in that it is the only station in the country where trains depart from either end to reach London [...]
No, it isn't: other examples include:
(all in Kent: trains head to Charing Cross in one direction and Victoria in the other);
(in Hampshire: trains to Waterloo head west, trains to Victoria head east);
(all GNER services to Kings Cross leave from the east, but the sleeper service to Euston heads west);
(most GNER services leave via the west end, but some head east so to by-pass Wakefield).
There are also the stations on the South London Line, which runs between Victoria and London Bridge.
So Exeter St Davids is anything but unique in this regard! --RFBailey 09:14, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
