- Keep - it's a railway station on Great Britain's national railway system that has regular (hourly) timetabled service, and has been open for 97 years. Why nominate this one for deletion, and not one of the other 2,500+ stations in Great Britain? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:08, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- Possibly because a) WP:TRAINWRECK and b) every case is different. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? -

- Keep per Garuda3. Also meets WP:GNG, as does every other British railway station. Do you know how much has been written about the British railway network?! -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:15, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per all above. gidonb (talk) 23:26, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
