Trains to Cam & Dursley - Station Details and further Information on Cam & Dursley Train Services
Cam and Dursley train station is a train station serving the towns of Cam and Dursley in Gloucestershire. It is located on the main Bristol-Birmingham line, between Yate and Gloucester, at a site close to where Coaley Junction train station was situated from 1856 to 1965.
First Great Western's local services operate all services at this station. A new timetable was brought out on 10 December 2006 which saw the introduction of a mostly hourly "clockface" service, and a considerable increase in the number of trains calling, with northbound services (on Mondays to Fridays) increased from 11 to 15 and southbound services increased from 13 to 16. Northwards, services are to Gloucester with alternate services carrying onto Cheltenham, Ashchurch for Tewkesbury and Worcester Shrub Hill. Southbound, services are to Bristol and onwards to Bath and Westbury, with some services carrying on to Weymouth.
Following a campaign for the reopening of Coaley Junction, the new station called Cam and Dursley opened on the 14th May 1994, about 300 yards east of the original site. The new station is unstaffed, and consists of two platforms, linked by a footbridge, a car park and bus stop, from which bus services run to nearby Cam, Dursley and Coaley. Passenger services are provided by First Great Western on a largely hourly basis on the Bristol to Gloucester services. |
