Title: Find my nearest station Post by: Red Squirrel on May 18, 2023, 16:07:30 How do members find the nearest station to a given destination? For local journeys I tend to use TravelWest - which is good at giving a range of options. Google Maps is another obvious option.
Are there any other, perhaps better ways of doing this. particularly if you were planning a longer trip? Title: Re: Find my nearest station Post by: JayMac on May 18, 2023, 23:41:32 Google Maps is my go to nearly always. Stations, bus stops, pubs, butchers, opticians, chemists, pet shops, and the lesser spotted Tourist information Centres. The latter a dying breed.
Slightly disappointed that Isle of Man bus stops aren't currently mapped by the nearly all seeing eyes of Google.

Presumably because they don't contribute to the DfT dataset.
