HistoryHatfield was formerly the junction of two branch lines, both of which have now closed. The Hatfield and St Albans Railway closed to passenger traffic in 1951 as part of postwar economies brought in by the British Transport Commission.[2] The route of the line is now a public footpath, the Alban Way. Another railway ran to Dunstable North, and closed in 1965 under the Beeching Axe. The closure of the Dunstable North line has left Dunstable as one of the largest towns in England without a direct rail connection. FacilitiesHatfield has waiting rooms on all platforms, with extra shelters provided at various points along the platforms, as well as a canopy on Platform 1. There is a small café-shop style business, "Chuggs" on Platform 1, and three new retail units which opened in the new station building. There are three platform faces in total - platform 1 is a side platform facing the Up Slow line & used by London-bound trains (there is no platform on the Up Fast line), whilst platforms 2 & 3 face the Down Fast and Down Slow lies respectively; the latter is used by the majority of northbound trains. The station has a "Fast-Ticket" machine, as well as a standard touchscreen machine on either side of the building. Hatfield also has many vending machines throughout the station and a photo booth inside the booking hall, which also contains toilets for both genders and a separate disabled toilet. Ticket barriers are in operation. ServicesDuring the daytime there is generally a half-hourly fast service to London King's Cross southbound and also every 15 minutes a stopping service to Moorgate Monday to Fridays and half-hourly on weekends. Northbound there is a half-hourly service to Cambridge, with alternate trains extended to Cambridge North. There is also a stopping service to Welwyn Garden City on the same pattern as that to Moorgate (every 15 minutes weekdays, half-hourly weekends). The station is also served by various buses operated by Arriva, Centrebus and Uno (bus company). RedevelopmentHatfield Station was recently redeveloped to include a new bus interchange and taxi rank, multi-storey car park, refurbished ticket office, three new retail units and step-free access to all platforms.[3] Work on the project, which is to cost £9 million,[4] began in 2013 and was completed by the end of 2015. The new multi-storey car park opened on 17 November 2014[5] Routes{{rail start}}{{rail line|previous={{stnlnk|Potters Bar}} or{{stnlnk|Welham Green}}|next={{stnlnk|Welwyn Garden City}}|route=Great Northern Great Northern stopping |col={{GN colour}} }}{{rail line|previous={{stnlnk|Potters Bar}}|next={{stnlnk|Welwyn Garden City}}|route=Thameslink London-Cambridge semi-fast |col={{TL colour}} }}{{s-rail-next|title=Disused}}{{s-rail-national|previous=Lemsford Road Halt |toc=LNER|route=Hatfield and St Albans Railway|status=Disused|note=Line and station closed }}{{s-end}} AccidentsThree fatal rail crashes have occurred near Hatfield:
