Shoeburyness railway station is the eastern terminus of the London, Tilbury and Southend Line (Engineer's Line Reference FSS), serving the suburb of Shoeburyness, Essex. It is 39 miles 40 chains (63.57 km) down the main line from London Fenchurch Street via Basildon; the preceding station is Thorpe Bay. Its three-letter station code is SRY.
The line and station were opened in 1884 when the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway expanded east from Southend. The station and all trains serving it are currently operated by c2c.
Shoeburyness is arranged in a through-station layout despite being a terminus. It was opened on 1 February 1884 by the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway. As a result of this layout, the station has step-free access from the town's high street to all of its platforms.
Platforms 1 and 2 have an operational length for thirteen-coach trains and Platform 3 an operational length for nine-coach trains.
A connection exists to the Ministry of Defence site nearby at Pig's Bay, to the east over a level crossing on the high street, and extensive carriage sidings exist to the west comprising 31 sidings.
The ticket office is equipped with the Tribute ticket issuing system. The station has sheltered bicycle storage, a taxicab rank, and a car park.
The station was renovated in January 2013 to improve customer safety, security and facilities for the c2c customers.
When London Underground's District line operated a seasonal non-stop excursion train service between 1910 and 1939 through to the Southend area, Shoeburyness was the terminus.

I really enjoyed my time session that was spent at Shoeburyness especially with what I saw considering it being a terminus of the c2c network plus it wasn’t a station that I would considering spotting at but I thought I’ll try filming at somewhere new for once now I didn’t spend that much time at Shoeburyness but with it being a terminus you don’t often see much arrive and depart from the station unless it’s morning or evening rush hour.
My next station will be Peterborough which is located on the East Coast Mainline I haven’t been there for quite some time now but I’m sure it’ll be worth revisiting after awhile so until then thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the next video.
