Chelmsford railway station is a railway station serving the town of Chelmsford in Essex. The station is located on the Great Eastern Main Line.

The station is served by National Express East Anglia. Services are operated between London Liverpool Street and Ipswich, Clacton-on-Sea, Walton-on-the-Naze, Harwich, Braintree, Norwich. The railway at this point is elevated on a viaduct, so the platforms are above street level. It is the busiest station that is completely non-terminus outside of London in the UK.[citation needed]

History

The Eastern Counties Railway arrived in 1842, but due to the geography of the town, an 18-arch viaduct had to be built across what is now the town park. The station was built on a viaduct in its current location, with a 3-storey frontage. The present station building dates from a rebuild in 1985.
