Is Hampton Court Station going to close?


Not permanently, but the application involves a lot of building work,
including moving the car park underground, so I'd expect a lot of
disruption (I don't think there's a Hampton Court-Esher bus link
any more, so these tickets are presumably for car-borne
commuters).


There is such a link but it's useless: 513 Kingston-Hampton
Court-Esher-Cobham-Downside 3 buses a day. I suppose a commuter might
live or park their car at some point where both stations (2 miles apart
by road) are a reasonable choice - long ago I was issued, at no extra
cost and without being asked, a season from Walton-on-Thames OR Cobham
to Waterloo.
