Lake railway station
Lake railway station is a station on the Isle of Wight serving the village of Lake, situated in a quiet residential area not far from Lake Cliff Gardens and the beach at Sandown Bay. Until the construction of an interchange station with the Isle of Wight Steam Railway at Smallbrook Junction in 1991, this station was the newest on the island having opened by British Rail in 1987. The Station is formed of a single wooden platform with a shelter. The trains that serve this station are operated by Island Line which is a separate name of South Western Railway and are formed of Class 483s (London Underground 1938 Stock).

gollark: Apparently the first mention of coronavirus in my journal (it's computerized so I can search it very easily) was from January, and me mentioning that some teacher had been mentioning it at school.
gollark: It probably wouldn't have done me much good to have taken it seriously earlier, inasmuch as I'm not in a position to do anything about it/convince anyone else to, and the worst of the supply chain disruption everyone was hyping up was me having to have somewhat different pasta for a few days.
gollark: I think I was mostly just ignoring it and treating it as random bad background event #9372628 until march or so.
gollark: In general I mean.
gollark: > If you can see yourself needing something, and recognize the inevitability of wide scale spread, it’s preparation.I would assume that a lot of panic buyers assume they're just rationally preparing too.
