History

edit

The station was originally built in 1993 to serve a local farm park which closed as a visitor attraction shortly after the station was built. Today it serves primarily as an access to Cardinham Woods, a local beauty spot.[1]

Description

edit

Colesloggett Halt consists of a single, short platform with a small station shelter. There is no car park.[1]

Services

edit

Due to the very steep gradient on the line,[citation needed] services normally only call on the journey towards Bodmin Parkway.[2]
