About your departure station
Opened in 1903 for the Bristol & South Wales Union Railway, Pilning served Severn Tunnel workers.
Reduced to "Parliamentary service" (one weekly train) in 1964, it became Britain's least used station.
The 2018 restoration preserved its Edwardian signal box.
Handling under 100 annual passengers, it's maintained for emergency tunnel access.
Pilning's unusual status highlights railway operational requirements and heritage preservation, where even near disused stations retain strategic value.
Its survival represents the complex realities of maintaining Britain's rail infrastructure beyond simple passenger metrics.
