Patchway railway station is on the South Wales Main Line, serving the town of Patchway and village of Stoke Gifford in South Gloucestershire, England. It is 6 miles from Bristol Temple Meads. Its three letter station code is PWY. It is managed by Great Western Railway, who provide all train services at the station; there is generally a train every hour in each direction between Cardiff Central and Taunton.nnThe station was opened by the Bristol and South Wales Union Railway in 1863 with a single platform, 0.5 miles west of the current location, but was resited in 1885 when the line was widened to double track. The station once had large buildings and a goods yard, but these were demolished in the late 20th century, with small brick shelters built in their place. The line through Patchway has recently been electrified as part of the 21st-century modernisation of the Great Western Main Line.nnPatchway railway station is located in the Patchway area of South Gloucestershire, within the Bristol conurbation. There is a large Rolls-Royce industrial area to the west of the station, while the area to the north and east is primarily residential. To the south is a large amount of railway land, including the Filton Triangle depot. The station is on the South Wales Main Line between Bristol Parkway and Newport South Wales, and just off the Cross Country Route north of Filton Abbey Wood and the east end of the Henbury Loop Line. It is 5 miles 77 chains from Bristol Temple Meads and 114 miles 5 chains from London Paddington via Bristol Parkway. The station is just north of Patchway Junctions 1 and 2, where the lines from Bristol Parkway, Filton Abbey Wood and Henbury converge. The next station east is Bristol Parkway, the next station south is Filton Abbey Wood and the next station west is Pilning.nnThe station is on a rough north–south alignment, curving towards the west at the north end. There are 2 platforms, separated by two running lines and connected by an open footbridge. Platform 1, on the east side of the station and adjacent to the Up Tunnel track, is for trains towards Filton Abbey Wood and Bristol Parkway. Platform 2, on the west side and adjacent to the Down Tunnel track, is for trains towards Pilning. Both platforms are 121 metres long, and the tracks have a speed limit of 90 miles per hour. The line through Patchway has a loading gauge of W8, and handles over 15 million train tonnes per year. It is not electrified, though it is planned to be electrified as part of the 21st-century modernisation of the Great Western Main Line.nnThe main access to the station is from Station Road to the east; however, there is also a set of steps and a turnstile into the industrial estate to the west. Facilities at the station are minimal – there are small brick shelters on each platform, but no facilities for buying tickets. There are customer help points, giving next train information for both platforms. A small car park with 15 spaces, and racks for four bicycles, is on the east side of the station on Station Road. CCTV cameras are in operation at the station. Step-free access is available to both platforms following completion of a new footbridge with lifts.nnFrom 2002 to 2014, annual passenger numbers at Patchway more than quintupled, from 16,898 to 92,540, and the station was noted in 2013 as having a high growth trend. However, these numbers are still fairly low; Patchway is the 1,730th busiest station in Great Britain and the fifth busiest station in South Gloucestershire, busier only than Pilning.nnPatchway is managed by Great Western Railway, which operates all services from the station. The basic service from Monday to Friday is one train per hour in each direction between Cardiff Central and Taunton, with some trains extended beyond Taunton to Exeter St Davids, Paignton, Plymouth and Penzance. In addition, there is one early morning service to Portsmouth Harbour and a late night service to Westbury, with similar return workings. On Saturdays, there is a similar level of service throughout most of the day.
Came here in the evening on a cold windy day, there wasn't much room to hide from the rain and wind, the lifts weren't working, and there were long wait times between connecting trains, as not many stopped there Bristol parkway was closed.nnHad a bit of a spooky vibe to it, but that was a plus.
Could do with a couple of displays for train times and announcements. Otherwise perfectly serviceable station, with free parking
Trains are few and far between, 3 seats for 35 people so you have to sit on the floor and if your a bit hungover and require a bottle of water then the nearest shop is about 40 miles away so die of dehydration.
No information screens, no announcements, no ticket machine or any way to buy tickets. Sparse shelters. This station could be so much better.
