Which railway stations are not accessible to disabled people.

When referring to access to railway stations for disabled people, it normally relates to those with reduced mobility. When considering if a station is accessible it is usually put in the context of a wheelchair user and therefore stations are categorized according to the existence of step free access to all station platforms and facilities. The information below reflects this definition of an inaccessible station, but people with a range of other disabilities may still be able to use these stations.
Of Scotland’s 358 railway stations, 274 (76.6%) have step free access to all platforms.
42 stations (11.7%) have platforms that can only be accessed by steps. This makes it impossible for a wheelchair user to reach rail services from these stations. Table 1 provides a full list of these stations:
