Yatton Station :: Shared Description
Yatton station, on the Bristol to Exeter line, is in the village of Yatton in North Somerset. It is 12 miles west of Bristol Temple Meads station, and 130 miles from London Paddington. It was opened in 1841 by the Bristol and Exeter Railway, and served as a junction station for trains to Clevedon and Cheddar, but these lines closed in the 1960s. The station, which has two platforms, is managed by Great Western Railway, the seventh company to be responsible for the station, and the third franchise since privatisation in 1997. They provide all train services at the station, mainly hourly services between Bristol Parkway and Weston-super-Mare, and between Cardiff Central and Taunton.
