Mansfield

I purchased a ticket from Mansfield train station to Coventry from the ticket office at Mansfield and at the same time requested a print out of the journey changes. The print out said to change at Nottingham and Birmingham New street. On arrival at the barrier at Birmingham new street I was denied access to the coventry train platform. On querying this with Birmingham New street ticket office staff they said that the print out I had been given was not correct and the ticket would not allow travel through Birmingham New street to Coventry. The ticket office would not budge on this issue even though they admitted that the Mansfield ticket office had given me the wrong information. They asked me to pay again or purchase a single ticket to Coventry

I am absolutely disgusted in this train station my mum brought my disabled niece here to use the toilet who is only 4 and was desperate for a wee and she was refused access as she didn't have a ticket. She was told to go 2 the bus station which is near by. By the time she had got there my niece had wet herself 😠😠😠

The Bus station Security guards are not very good with Trainspotters

It’s a Good Station but there are barely any Facilities

The Market is always deserted nowadays.(used to be one of the best until the council tried to turn the town into a metropolis.(.
If you want nail bars,phone shops and hairdresser's look no more, there's one every 10feet...!!!!
If you want a choice of boarded up shops take your pick...
I used to love going for a miander around time..My dentist is the only time I go near it now.

Didn't really use this station cause Mansfield Woodhouse was closer when I lived there, but what I can say is that it's just a station with 2 platforms, typical for a UK train station and parking shouldn't really be an issue. That being said, connections are very limited, only being served by trains to worksop and Nottingham.

Mansfield is a good market town, lots of variety

Trains not on time or doesn’t come.
