Colesloggett Halt (Cornish: Gorta Kastellogos) is a small railway station on the Bodmin and Wenford Railway, a heritage railway in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

History

The station was originally built in 1993 to serve a local farm park which closed as a visitor attraction shortly after the station was built. Today it serves primarily as an access to Cardinham Woods, a local beauty spot.[1]

Description

Colesloggett Halt consists of a single, short platform with a small station shelter. There is no car park.[1]

Services

Due to the very steep gradient on the line,[citation needed] services normally only call on the journey towards Bodmin Parkway.[2]
