Hi all
I'm planning a trip to Reading to do some trainspotting, does anybody know the best platforms for spotting and filming?
Thanks GWR 158
Actually, Trainspotting - and its 2017 sequel T2 Trainspotting - was filmed at Corrour station rather than Reading - see
https://almostginger.com/corrour-station-scotland/In terms of platform choice, there are nominally two - It has a passing loop around an island platform with a siding on the east side. However, since November 1985, all passenger trains have used the original “down” platform. The "up" loop remains and is serviceable but it is no longer used by passenger trains.
