Travelling to the Office
By Car
The Old Ticket Office is located off the main A415 just over two miles from Abingdon and close to the Culham Science Centre. Limited free car parking is available next to the Ticket Office, or over the footbridge by the Railway Inn.By Bus
Reductions in services and routes means that travelling to the station by bus is not too easy, but two bus routes do run to the Culham Science Centre, which is just a few minutes level walk away. The first service is Thames Travel number 95 which runs during morning and afternoon rush hours between Didcot Parkway Station and Culham Science Centre. The second is the more regular Oxford Bus Company number 45 which operates between Abingdon and Templars Square in Cowley via Culham Campus, Berinsfield, Littlemore and Rose Hill.On Foot
A few intrepid travellers have popped in to see us whilst exploring the local paths, or on their way to/from the Thames Footpath. As can be seen from the map above this would involve a fair detour though.
By Train
You could of course always travel by train. Most local GWR services between Oxford and Didcot do stop at Culham, but not all, and none on Sundays. It would be wise therefore to check the timetables before planning a trip. Culham station is unmanned and so is sadly not particularly suitable for disabled access though it is possible to cross the line by means of the old road bridge. Check the latest timetable by clicking or tapping on the GWR logo and choose timetable T8.Please note:
When visiting the station members of the public are not allowed onto the old Platform 2 upon which stands the Old Ticket Office. The station itself is operational with fast trains passing throughout the day, so sensible care must be taken at all times to ensure one's own safety and that of others. Children should always be kept under adult supervision. All visitors to the Old Ticket Office do so at their own risk, no responsibility will be accepted by Entikera Ltd. for any loss or injury howsoever caused.
Access into the building and Waiting Room is through a wide doorway and up one small step. The door between here and the inner office is however very narrow and not suitable for wheelchairs. It is possible to cross between platforms step free by means of the old road bridge. Caution should be exercised by anyone doing so as there are no footpaths and it is still open to traffic.
No public facilities of any type exist either in the Old Ticket Office or at the station itself.
