Britain's rail network is widely used, with roughly 4.4 million journeys every single day - yet a clutch of stations barely see a soul. That's the stark contrast in the Office of Rail and Road's 2023/24 figures that highlight a handful of nearsilent platforms that feel frozen in time.
Some of these stations sit on 'parliamentary' routes, which are run solely to meet a legal requirement and sustained by token services. Others are request stops that few passengers ever request, and some are hamstrung by infrastructure quirks that make stopping awkward. With 1.61 billion passenger journeys in Great Britain recorded by the ORR's latest data, these are the loneliest of British train stations ranked.
