Accredited Secure Stations in Devon and Cornwall View Secure Stations in Devon and Cornwall in a larger map Back on 28th April I posted about Secure Stations in the region. As part of this post I wondered how many stations locally had been accredited as Secure Stations as this information did not appear anywhere. Well thanks to the Department of Transport (under Freedom of Information) I can tell you that officially there are 66 stations in Devon and Cornwall operated by First Great Western that have achieved Secure Station Status. I have plotted these on the map above which you can zoom in on to the individual station to see when the station was accredited. The accreditation is valid for two years with Barnstable being officially out of date already. If you do look at the map you will see that there are not actually 66 stations displayed. This is because 2 of the stations are in Somerset and 1 is in Avon! You might also notice that apart form Plymouth Station itself, none of the other local stations are included. This is not a big surprise I guess but it would be nice to see at some stage in the future.
