Trivia[]

  • The latest station model resembles the Charing Cross station in Glasgow.[1]
  • Prior to Version 1.10:
    • Only one route served this station, being R014 (then Newry <> James Street).
    • The low ceilings on the platforms caused the top of the doors on some trains to reach above the ceiling.
    • The station was the only station to be fully underground.
    • Despite being a station in the Airport Zone, there were no connections to any of the other airport stations, although one could walk to Airport Central to catch an AirLink train to the Airport Terminals. There was no connecting path between the stations.
    • This station used to lack any OFF indicators despite being a dispatchable station, similar to Berrily.
    • This station was located in signal Zone F as it is a Waterline station.
    • This station had lifts, but ironically was not fully step free as there was a short escalator at the entrance to the ticket hall, which made it wheelchair accessible only for passengers who are inverse changing, and was also the last station on Waterline not having an entrance with wheelchair access.
  • After Version 1.10:
    • The ceilings were raised with the upgrade of the station.
    • The station was no longer fully underground, as there is an opening above the platforms.
    • The station was moved near Stepford Airport Parkway, now located northwest of Stepford Airport Parkway, making the interchange the 2nd OSI (out of station interchange) in the whole network.
    • 3 more routes started calling here, being R016, R017 and R018.
    • This station became a junction. Trains headed to Airport Terminal 2 branch off to the left, where as trains to Farleigh and Esterfield branch off to the right.
    • OFF indicators were installed along with the station's upgrade.
    • This station was moved from signal Zone F to signal Zone C, and is also the only station operated by Waterline to be in signal Zone C.
  • This station was intended to be a terminal station, but the developers decided that the branch line for the station would be too short, so they added another station, James Street.
  • The tracks between this station and James Street were the first lit up tunnels in the whole SCR system. The nearby Airport Terminal tunnels are also lit up.
  • This station was formerly in the Stepford County Railway Intro, but it has been replaced by Northshore.
  • This station and Cambridge Street Parkway used to be the only stations on Waterline with a travel time of 2 minutes between them. However, when V1.6 was released, there is also a timing of 2 minutes between Morganstown Docks and Morganstown. The rest only have 1 minute.
  • Prior to V1.8, Leighton City had a similar design to this station, primarily the platform walls.
  • This was the only Waterline station to have had "Stepford" in its name, but "Stepford" was removed with the new human station announcements introduced in V1.8.
    • Despite this, the official station code from the V1.10 release notes for Airport West is shown as "SAW". Similar to Airport Terminal 1, 2 and 3, which are "SAO", "SAX", and "SAZ" respectively. These stations all do not have "Stepford" in their in-game names.
