Step free Rail Travel, London and National rail, wheelchair accessible trains. accessible travel.

May 2025 :
My name is Kevan Wilding, and I have spent many hours personally visiting the rail stations in London, and recording the stairs and elevators, plus lifts. Sadly, I am now in a wheelchair, with a carer, for any travel to London sadly, and its extremely hard to know the best routes, and which stations to head for.
I now live just a short ride away from London, and I am close to a National Rail station; so I thought I would add all of these stations too. It may take a little time as there are a lot of them, 2590 stations in the whole of Great Britain.
The pages list individual details of whether a station is accessible, and step free, for someone in a wheelchair. I also try to give more detail to any stairs, subways or slopes, allowing access to a station, and car parking availability etc, plus I embed a google map.
Just recently, in July 2025, I visited Derbyshire with my family, and we chose to spend a few hours on the PeakRail steam train ride from Rowsley South station. This is the steam engine run by volunteers for fun, and a small fee to help their costs, and the train stations are all very accessible and step free to the stations of Rowsley South, Darley Dale, Matlock Roverside and Matlock.

The trip was brilliant, and many thanks. A high recommendation.
It also happens to be 200 years since the inception of steam trains.
