Quietest train station welcomes fewer than 40 passengers a day

Figures from the Office of Rail and Road show that Betchworth station is once again the least used section of Surrey's railway attracting only 14,482 passengers through its doors between April 2024 and March 2025.

Given its location this is perhaps not a surprise. The station is located in the small village of the same name, which has a population of around one thousand people. Located between Dorking and Reigate, it is in a largely rural area of the county.
