Cholsey railway station
Cholsey railway station is a railway station serving the village of Cholsey in Oxfordshire in England. The station is served by local services operated by First Great Western Link from Reading to Didcot and Oxford.
Cholsey station was the junction for a branch line serving the town of Wallingford. Although that branch closed to passenger trains in 1959 and to freight trains in 1981, part of it is now preserved as the Cholsey & Wallingford Railway. This operates intermittently between Cholsey station and the line's headquarters on the outskirts of Wallingford.
The station has platforms on each of the fast and relief (slow) lines, although the platforms on the fast lines see little use. It also has a terminal platform used by trains on the Wallingford line. The platforms are located on an embankment, with the station building at a lower level and accessed by a pedestrian underpass.
