Reddish South is a station in Reddish, Stockport, England, on the Stockport-Stalybridge Line, famous for having only one train a week in one direction. A single track serves a single, bare platform. Unlike Denton (another station on the line) which has a bench as its sole passenger facility, Reddish South has no facilities whatsoever, nor any lighting. Originally the station consisted of two island platforms with four tracks. One of these track beds has been sold off, while another has been filled in. The second island is now inaccessible as there are no longer steps down to it. The station is a request stop. In theory prospective passengers must flag down the train, as it approaches the station. However, in practice the train usually stops at every station, regardless of whether there are passengers waiting. ==Quietest station in the UK== According to the 2007/8 National rail figures, Reddish South had only 47 entries and exits in a 12-month period, making it the UK's least used railway station. (2 stations were ranked lower than this but they were newly opened, and thus did not record patronage for the whole year.) With 26 passenger entries and exits between April 2013 and March 2014, Reddish South is the third-least used station in Great Britain, after Teesside Airport railway station and Shippea Hill railway station.〔()〕 The only service is the 9:22 Fridays-only train from Stockport to Stalybridge calling at 9:26, which then continues via Denton and Guide Bridge to Stalybridge. Reddish does however have a second station, Reddish North railway station, which has a regular service. Heaton Chapel and Brinnington are both also nearby. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reddish South railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
