Temple Meads doesn't have the gloss of some of the modernised London termini such as Liverpool Street, but it can keep you warm, dry and fed whilst waiting for your train.
Unlike stations in the Midlands, which label long platforms as (e.g.) 5a and 5b, this station gives new numbers to the same platform faces, odd numbers to the north end of the station, even numbers to the south (but there is no platform 14, only 13 and 15).
The station is traditional with canopies for most of its length and plenty of seats.
