Britain's newest railway station is open - it's Soham in Cambridgeshire on the line between Ipswich and Peterborough. Operated by Greater Anglia, the first trains ran on the 13th December 2021 at six o'clock in the moring, but I went down for the much more reasonable eight o'clock and stayed for the official opening.

CORRECTIONS:
When taking into account other station closures, Soham is actually station number 2,567 on the official counted list of stations.
