[edit] Annual entry\exit
Erm, should there be any data on this at all? People cannot physically enter or exit this station without going on the Island Line or the steam railway. Where did this figure of 0.003 million people come from? Simply south 15:58, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- The figure comes from [1], the source document used for all UK railway station exits figures (see template talk:UK stations). You cannot exit other than on the Island Line or steam railway, but you can buy tickets to or from the station, and people do - it might be cheaper to buy tickets for the railways separately if your journeys are short or one-way (there is a combined day rover ticket for both lines). I was too late in the day to make a return trip on the steam railway when I was there (I took photos of the last departure of the day) and so I bought a return ticket to Smallbrook Junction. It is also possible that some revenue from the rover tickets is allocated to the station, as there is little point in buying such a ticket if you aren't going to use both IL and IOWSR trains.

- Also, remember that the two railways are independent and, AFAIK, other than the rover ticket there is no through ticketing available. Thryduulf 16:14, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
