Welcome to the Old Ticket Office at Culham
Here you will find out about the history of the building, together with photos old and new and, by following the YouTube link, view videos of some of the heritage trains that can be seen passing through. Selecting the 'ABOUT' menu will lead not only to a wealth of background information, including the station's 175th anniversary in 2019, but also to resources which are free to download and include our construction sheets for any potential modeller of Culham. The 'BITS & BOBS' menu is the place to find interesting asides, and the 'MEMORABILIA' menu keeps expanding as we add more information about our ever growing collection of models, original GWR and other associated items.
The building has been rented from Network Rail since early 2014 by Entikera Limited (trading as Mp Fine Art Printing

Whilst a selection of items from our memorabilia collection may be seen on display inside the original Waiting Room and Station Office it is not a museum but rather a busy working environment and so it is not possible to accommodate unexpected visitors. Prospective visitors should therefore avoid disapointment and always arrange an appointment if they wish to view inside the building. Contact details can be found on the 'FIND US' page. However, free copies of our Discovery Trail booklet and souvenir tickets are always available upon request during office hours.
The electrification project was slowly creeping towards us and together with planned platform extensions at the station we expected to see big changes. Current information suggests that neither are now planned to happen in the foreseeable future. The old ticket office building is Grade II* listed and so it and the original (now unused) Platform 2 upon which it stands should remain untouched by progress.
