• Reading Railway Station

  Reading has a good railway station. It serves plenty of destionations all over the country. There are plenty of shops including WHSmiths, Boots, a florist and lots of places where you can get food or a coffee.It is a large station, with plenty of ticket staff and lots of information screens.There are also automatic ticket machines for local journeys. There are always staff around on the platforms if you need any assistance. It doesn't get so busy that it feels uncomfortable.It is a short walk from the station to the centre of Reading where there is good shopping - a large high street and a modern shopping centre by the river.

• Great station

  Reading station is a decent sized building. Even at the height of rush hour there's enough space to walk around and not feel like you're about to be crushed.There are plenty of shops to get food, papers etc. for your journey. These include Upper Crust, Burger King, WH Smith, Marks & Spencer and other smaller shops. I would warn against getting anything other than a drink at the Burger King as it is not always fresh.The staff are abrupt but helpful in getting you to the right platform at the right time. The ticket staff are very cheerful and helpful. The station is equipped with automatic ticket machines as well.Trains run frequently to all locations along the Great Western as well as other locations like Oxford etc.
