I arrived at Sandwell and Dudley at 7:05 today to find the car park completely full. Just wondered if there are many other station car parks which fill up similarly early.

Before the car park extension was built, Grateley & Andover used to fill up quite quickly with commuters heading towards London.

I would guess Whitchurch & Overton fills up early as those aren't the biggest

Loughborough despite being many times the size it was 10 years ago having had 2 extensions fills up very early. The local streets that were used by commuters all had residents parking zones slapped on them.

Stalybridge station's probably fills up before 7am. Some may resort to the side streets or (if they can find a space) other town centre car parks. Opposite the station forecourt is a pay and display car park.

Martins Heron is full up after the 6:35 train to Waterloo. Mind you it only has about 20 spaces and they are all free!

Signs outside Liverpool South Parkway are claiming full by 0630 due to it becoming essentially Liverpool's main station temporarily.
