Fisherground railway station, also known as Fisherground Halt, is on the 15-inch (380 mm) gauge Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway in Cumbria, England. Its main purpose is to serve the adjoining camp site. A passing loop is situated 100 metres (330 ft) to the west of the halt whilst a, now longer used, water tank is situated to the east.
The station may be accessed by a public footpath that starts at the campsite, goes through the campsite and crosses the line, where the station is. The footpath then goes on to Miteadale. It is a request stop only (you need to ask the guard prior to boarding the train if you would like to alight here). If passengers wish to depart from this station, tickets can be bought from the guard or the station master (if applicable).
During the high season, it may be manned by volunteers from the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway, who sell tickets from the shelter and act as station masters and is about 5 miles (8 km) from Ravenglass and 1 1⁄2 miles (2 km) from Dalegarth.
Accessibility
Due to the railway station being on a public footpath, which is not accessible to the disabled, wheelchair users are not permitted to alight here.
