St James Park railway station is a suburban railway station in Exeter. Formerly known as Lion's Halt it now takes its name from the Exeter City F.C. football ground, which is next to the station. The club has adopted the station under the community rail scheme and contributes to its upkeep. The station is operated by First Great Western, and is served by local Exeter-Exmouth services. The Southbound platform is very short and only be served by a one or two (20m) coach train. (Other train formations - eg a Class 158 must use selective door opening or single door opening). The station is served by 1 train per hour in each direction (2 at peak times).
