Soham

A brand new station. The 12.50 from Ipswich to Peterborough departs after calling at Soham on 16th December 2021. Prior to three days earlier, only Soham residents well over the age of 56 could have claimed to have boarded, or alighted from, a passenger service here. The positive impression created by the new station architecture and facilities is undone somewhat by the extensive use of visually intimidating high-security palisade fencing throughout the premises, as would be more befitting a high risk inner city depot than a rural station in Cambridgeshire.
