The lineless platform at Chippenham railway station
The platform on the left, nearest the main station entrance, looks like a platform and is a platform -
but there is no longer a railway line alongside it.
I did not immediately notice the absence of a line. Lesson learned - expect the unexpected!
The one line in view is alongside platform 1.

Chippenham station with old footbridge
A new bridge with lifts to the platforms was installed in 2014/15. The old footbridge can be seen nearer the camera in this view.

Old bridge, new barriers
Chippenham station is now a barrier-controlled station, so a new building has been erected where passengers entering from the car park have to present tickets before using the footbridge to the platform. This is the old footbridge, supplemented with a newer one with lifts at the west end of the station in 2015.

From footbridge to footbridge, Chippenham railway station
Viewed from this footbridge http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3354274 over the station looking towards the station footbridge for access between platforms. The next station ahead is Swindon.
Only the two island platforms are in use. There is no line alongside the platform on the right.
