The trains at this station are hourly, and often late as with any station. It is an unmanned station, which is a concern as it is next to a hotel in Longton which is known for anti-social behaviour, although I can't say I have had any issues on the platforms themselves, only the surrounding area. The newly installed ticket machine is at the bottom and not on the platforms. Unfortunately I have been approached by people begging for money when using the machine and it feels very unsafe - I preferred it when we had to buy tickets on the train itself. Additionally, the machine has failed to work a number of times, so I've had to seek the conductor before getting on the train to explain the situation and pay for a ticket.nnThere is also no provision for anyone using a wheelchair or pushchair, as there are stairs to both platforms and you need to go under the bridge to get to the platforms no barriers.nnThe green bridge is of historic interest however and the platform has adequate seating.
Just an incredibly sub par station considering the slightly busier nature of the town it serves. No ticket machine provided nor is there any step free access. Shelter and seating is limited and trains run every hour, if you are lucky.
Be careful , it's a lonely station with no one manning it , Hotel across the road has some wierdos that hang about under the stairs , quite scary in the evening or on your own , no facilities for disabled
Got some really beautiful architectural buildings and green spaces. Especially the mature victorian planting of Longton Park aka Queen's Park. The best park in Stoke-on-Trent!nJust a shame the majority of it is run down. The majority of shops in the town centre are charity shops or empty.nThe indoor market a grand turreted entrance on The Strand with a mosaic and a lion's head above it, is good for fresh fruits and vegetables at reasonable prices. Lots of meat stalls too. Unfortunately, the wee independent shops that connect the indoor market to The Strand seem to be all closing down. As too are the shops in the pedestrianised shopping mall, which should be knocked down & rebuilt from scratch. More of a ghost town than a town centre.nThere are however, a post office, train station, big supermarkets Lidl and Tesco, Pet's at Home, Curry's, Next, Argos TKMax, Matalan, B&M, Wilko, Sports Direct, Potteries chimneys, cemeteries and lots of solicitor's firms etc so it's not completely dead. Lots of room for improvement.nApparently the council are aiming to make it fit for tourists in the coming years. Can't see it myself. But they are presently revamping the Town Hall. And The Ghlost House café is a good edition too. Both are lovely buildings. So who knows...
Not a lot to say about the unstaffed train station.nYou can catch trains there and you can alight as well if you want. The choice is yours.nActually, it doubles as a Pokémon Gym these days.nnThey charge for the car park.
