Shoreham railway station

Shoreham railway station serves Shoreham in Kent, England. Train services are provided by Southeastern and Thameslink.

The ticket office here was closed c 1992, having been manned only during part of the day; these days, a PERTIS passenger-operated ticket machine issues 'Permits to Travel' - which are exchanged on-train or at manned stations for travel tickets - and is located on the Ashford-bound platform.

The platforms are connected by a concrete footbridge - a typical product of the Southern Railway concrete factory at Exmouth Junction. There is a small car park (free) at the entrance to the station.

Service

From 23 March 2009, most of the stopping train service to/from Blackfriars is re-extended (resuming a service pattern from the 1980s) across Central London via the 'Thameslink' route, serving City Thameslink, Farringdon, St Pancras International, Kentish Town and West Hampstead Thameslink.

The typical Monday to Friday off-peak service from the station is

  • 2tph (trains per hour) to West Hampstead Thameslink, calling at all stations via Bromley South, Catford and Elephant & Castle
  • 2tph to Sevenoaks

    • The Saturday and Sunday service from the station is

  • 2tph to Blackfriars calling at all stations via Bromley South and Catford
  • 2tph to Sevenoaks
