Simon's Town railway station

Description

Simon's Town railway station is a Metrorail railway station in the town of Simon's Town on the Cape Peninsula; it is the southern terminus of the Southern Line. The station is located between Station Road (the M4) and the beach.The railway line from Fish Hoek into Simon's Town is single-track, but the station itself has three tracks; one track is served by a side platform next to the station building on Station Road, while the other two are served by an island platform connected by a pedestrian subway.There were no trains running on the 6.3 km final section of the Cape Town suburban line between Fish Hoek and Simon's Town from November 2009 until February 2011, due to unusually high tides that piled heaps of sand on the line and caused serious damage beyond Glencairn, where structure beneath the track was undermined.Vicinity Naval Base Simon's Town Boulders Beach False Bay Yacht Club Jubilee Square

This is the first and last stop of the metro rail. Its not a very expensive trip if you are visiting Cape Town. While waiting for the train, its not a very clean station or very well looked after, the toilets i would recommend to stay well away from, it is really gross and dirty but once you get into the train if its not packed its well worth a ride from Simons town down to Cape to Cuba. That is a nice street to walk around in, go a a nice cocktail and enjoy the day. Take the train back to simons town to grab your car again. Its a beautiful scenic view while riding the train literally right next to the ocean. If you havent done it before, well worth the ride ;
Train for cape town once an hour , 10 rand appr.
Small Town with a lovely beach
I enjoyed it there
