Sandling railway station is on the South Eastern Main Line in England, serving the village of Sandling and the town of Hythe, Kent. It is {{convert|65|mi|36|chain|km}} down the line from London Charing Cross and is situated between {{rws|Westenhanger}} and {{rws|Folkestone West}}. The station and all trains that call are operated by Southeastern.

The ticket office is manned only during part of the day; at other times a PERTIS 'permit to travel' machine, located outside the station building on the 'up' side, suffices.

It is the closest station to Saltwood Castle (where Alan Clark lived until his death) and it is frequently mentioned in the Alan Clark Diaries. In 1960, the station was allocated a camping coach converted from a Pullman car, which was fitted with a full kitchen, two sleeping compartments and a room with two single beds.[1]

Originally it opened as Sandling Junction and had four platforms. The up branch platform was closed when the line to Sandgate was cut back to Hythe and the branch line singled in 1931. When the line to Hythe was closed in 1951 the down branch platform was closed. Subsequently, the station was renamed Sandling for Hythe. In 2010 the disused branch platform is still in situ.

Services

As of September 2016 the typical off peak services from this station are:

  • 1tph to London Charing Cross
  • 1tph to Dover Priory[2]
