Departing from and arriving at Merstham
Before departing from Merstham
Use Merstham (MHM) in the departure field and check the platform for your booked direction. Keep all tickets available for inspection, including every part of a split-ticket journey.
The station record lists access from Station Road. Match the entrance to your departure platform before setting out; the nearest entrance is not necessarily the most accessible one.
If your booking offers ticket collection at Merstham, the recorded machine location is platform 2. Check the collection instructions and allow time before your train; a listed machine is not confirmation that every ticket can be collected there.
When arriving at Merstham
Select Merstham (MHM) as the arrival station and plan the onward journey from that station, rather than from the centre of the wider area. Check your return departure separately, particularly when the return train uses a different platform.
Access at Merstham needs a platform-specific check. Read the access notes below and confirm the arrival platform, exit and any assistance with the operator before booking.

What should I check when splitting this journey?
The train normally needs to call where one ticket ends and the next starts, even if you stay aboard. Check every ticket’s permitted trains, Railcard conditions and reservations. Some season and area tickets have specific exceptions.
Read the split-ticket guidance for your journey, or check refunds and amendments before booking.
