Dundee railway station serves the city of Dundee on the east coast of Scotland. The station has two through platforms and two terminal platforms. It is situated on the northern, non-electrified section of the East Coast Main Line, 59¼ miles (95 km) northeast of Edinburgh. Dundee is the tenth busiest station in Scotland.[2] In January 2014, the former main station building was demolished to make way for a new building as part of the Dundee Waterfront Project which opened on 9 July 2018. HistoryThe station is the rebuilt Dundee Tay Bridge railway station, which had been built by the North British Railway in 1878 as part of the Tay Rail Bridge project. It was originally one of three main stations in Dundee, along with Dundee West, the Caledonian Railway station for Perth which was rebuilt in 1889-1890 and closed in the 1960s, and Dundee East station on the Dundee and Arbroath Joint Railway which closed in 1959.[3] It is located in cutting at the south end of Camperdown tunnel, which passes beneath the town's former docks (now filled in) and required permanent pumping to keep dry. The station is consequently sited below sea level.[4] In the nineteenth century plans were put forward to concentrate all Dundee's railway facilities in a new central station, with the idea first being mooted by John Leng in 1864 in his role as editor of the Dundee Advertiser. The idea re-emerged in 1872 following the start of work on the Tay Rail Bridge and again in 1896. Various sites for the scheme were suggested including building it between the High Street and the harbour and between the Murraygate and the Meadows. However none of these proposals were ever realised and the three distinct stations survived as independent entities.[5] Today, the only other remaining station within Dundee City boundaries is {{Stnlnk|Broughty Ferry}}.[6] Both {{Stnlnk|Balmossie}} and {{Stnlnk|Invergowrie}} stations are located very close to the city's boundaries, but lie in Angus and Perth and Kinross.[7] As part of the redevelopment of Dundee city centre in the 1960s the original public entrance of Dundee Tay Bridge station was demolished to accommodate the new Tay Road Bridge offramps, with a new smaller structure replacing it. A footbridge connected the new station building to the city's Union Street to allow pedestrians to cross the busy inner ring road safely. In 2005, the footbridge was demolished in two phases as part of a regeneration project called the Dundee Central Waterfront Development Plan. This project, which has included removal of the 1970s public entrance to the station, will attempt to restructure the approach roads to the Tay Road Bridge and create a new civic space, as well as making way for the new railway station.[8] New stationA new £38m railway station was built in 2018; it replaced the old station as part of the Dundee waterfront regeneration project. The designer of the station was Dundee-based architecture firm Nicoll Russell Studios in collaboration with Jacobs Engineering Group; construction work was carried out by Balfour Beatty.[9] Construction began in late 2015 and a temporary entrance was established on Riverside Drive. The new station was built over the site of the demolished old station. It includes a five-story curved building that houses the new station entrance, concourse and access points on the first and underground floors as well as a 120-room Sleeperz Hotel occupying the upper floors.[10] The new railway station completed construction in early June and opened alongside the new Sleeperz Hotel on 9 July 2018 by Dundee West MSP & Minister for Public Health and Sport Joe FitzPatrick, Lord Provost Ian Borthwick and representatives from Dundee City Council.[11] ServicesThere are direct connections to London King's Cross, plus CrossCountry Trains along the Cross Country Route to Penzance via {{Stnlnk|Leeds}}, Sheffield, Derby, {{Stnlnk|Birmingham New Street}}, Bristol Temple Meads, {{Stnlnk|Exeter St Davids}} and {{Stnlnk|Plymouth}}. More frequent services run to {{Stnlnk|Glasgow Queen Street}}, Edinburgh and {{Stnlnk|Aberdeen}}. For a period of time, Dundee was the starting station of the longest direct rail journey in Britain - the 06:43 Virgin CrossCountry service to {{Stnlnk|Penzance}}, which took just over 12 hours to complete. The station was the terminus of the reverse of this journey, the 08:30 CrossCountry service from Penzance which arrived at Dundee at 20:25. As of 14 December 2008, the longest through journey is now the 08:20 from Aberdeen to Penzance, arriving at Penzance at 21:50, 13.5 hours later. This still operates in the May 2016 timetable, departing from here at 09:32. Services in 2016:
3 trains per day to London Kings Cross from Aberdeen via Edinburgh, Newcastle and York. 3 trains per day to Aberdeen from London Kings Cross via Arbroath, Montrose and Stonehaven. 1 train per day to Leeds from Aberdeen via Kirkcaldy. 1 train per day to Aberdeen from Leeds via Arbroath, Montrose and Stonehaven.

This is where the Sleepers to/from Fort William, Inverness and Aberdeen join/separate.
1 train per hour to Edinburgh from Aberdeen running via Leuchars, generally running fast, stopping only at Leuchars and Haymarket 1 train per hour to Edinburgh starting here via Leuchars, Kirkcaldy, Inverkeithing and Haymarket 1 train per hour to Glasgow Queen Street via Perth and Stirling. 2 trains per hour to Aberdeen via Arbroath, Montrose and Stonehaven. 1 train per hour from Edinburgh via Haymarket, Inverkeithing, Kirkcaldy and Leuchars terminating hereFuture Service ImprovementsTransport Scotland and Scotrail plan to improve services here from 2018 as part of a major timetable re-cast across Scotland. This will see an hourly regional service to Perth & Glasgow being introduced (along similar lines to that already in operation to Edinburgh) serving the primary intermediate stations en route, with the existing Glasgow - Aberdeen becoming a limited stop express. A regular local stopping service to Broughty Ferry, Monifieith, Carnoustie & Arbroath is also to be reintroduced, almost 30 years after its predecessor was withdrawn by British Rail. Refurbished Intercity 125 sets will replace the existing DMU stock on Aberdeen to Glasgow & Edinburgh routes and a number of these will be extended to/from {{rws|Dyce}} & Inverness.[16]{{rail start}}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Leuchars}}|next={{Stnlnk|Arbroath}}|route=London North Eastern Railway East Coast Main Line|col={{NXEC colour}}}}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Leuchars}}|next={{Stnlnk|Arbroath}}|route=CrossCountry Cross Country Network |col={{XC colour}}}}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Leuchars}}|next={{Stnlnk|Broughty Ferry}}|route=Abellio ScotRail Edinburgh to Aberdeen Line |col={{ScotRail colour}} }}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Invergowrie}}|next={{Stnlnk|Broughty Ferry}}|route=Abellio ScotRail Glasgow to Aberdeen Line |col={{ScotRail colour}} }}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Leuchars}}|next={{Stnlnk|Carnoustie}}|route=Caledonian Sleeper Highland Caledonian Sleeper |col={{CS color}} }}{{s-end}} Station facilitiesThere is a taxi stand immediately outside of the station building, and the main bus interchange is a five-minute walk from the station in the city centre. There is a "Travel Office" for information and ticket purchasing, as well as an automatic ticket machine outside the office. The office often closes well before the last trains have departed. There is also a café adjacent to the automatic ticket gates on the concourse. The café, operated by WHSmith, mainly serves cold food such as sandwiches and hot and cold drinks. Like the ticket office, the café does not open in the late evening.[17] ReferencesNotes1. ^1 Butt (1995), page 85 2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://orr.gov.uk/statistics/published-stats/station-usage-estimates|title=Estimates of station usage {{!}} Office of Rail and Road|website=orr.gov.uk|access-date=2019-03-07}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=McKean|first1=Charles|last2=Whatley|first2=Patricia|last3=with Baxter|first3=Kenneth|title=Lost Dundee.
