It’s nearly time for you to submit your nominations for this year’s World Cup of Stations!

With 2025 marking 200 years since the birth of the modern railway, this year’s World Cup of Stations, organised by Rail Delivery Group, will see the nation celebrate the most life-changing station of the last 200 years. 

This theme will spotlight the many stations that have touched lives in unforgettable ways, from moments of hope and heroism to new beginnings.

There will be two phases to the competition:

• Nomination phase (1 to 22 August) – Nominate a station that you believe has made a life-changing impact.
• Public voting phase (13 to 17 October) – Cast your vote for your favourite shortlisted station, with the station with most votes to be crowned the winner.

Find all the details about the nomination phase, including submission criteria and example nominations, in this toolkit.
