英國評出最冷清火車站 一年僅接待旅客12人次

A table ranking of the quietest stations in the UK is topped by Shippea Hill station in Cambridgeshire, which astonishingly only 12 people used last year.

英國劍橋郡的西皮亞山火車站去年竟僅接待旅客12人次，榮登“全國最冷清車站榜”榜首。

Just one passenger a month boarded or exited a train at the 170-year-old station, which serves the hamlet of Shippea Hill, down from 22 in 2014-15, figures from the Office for Rail and Road for 2015-16 show.

這個服務於西皮亞山村的車站已有170年曆史。英國鐵路和公路辦公室公佈的2015-16年度數據顯示，每個月只有一位旅客在該火車站上下車，較2014-15年度的22人次有所下降。

One train to Norwich serves the outpost on weekdays, but there is no return service.

工作日有一列駛往諾維奇鎮的火車經過這個邊遠村莊，但沒有返程車。

Shippea Hill is a request stop, so passengers must flag down the driver if they want to board.

西皮亞山火車站是招呼站，因此如果旅客想在該站上車，須打旗號向司機示意。

By contrast, London's Waterloo was the country's busiest station with 99.1 million passengers coming in and out during the past 12 months. The figure is equivalent to around three people per second.

與之相比，英國最繁忙的車站--倫敦滑鐵盧火車站過去12個月的進出站旅客總量爲9910萬人次，相當於每秒約有3名旅客進出該站。

London Victoria is the second busiest with 81.2 million passengers.

倫敦維多利亞站是第二繁忙的火車站，其接待旅客爲8120萬。

Overall it is estimated that there were over 2.9 billion entries and exits at all rail stations in the UK.

據估計，英國所有火車站的進出站旅客總量達到了29億人次。
