The Station Today
The station building is extant and was used as a cycle hire shop but now, it houses the offices of Padstow Town Council. The cycle hire shop has been moved to a new building on the other side of the car park. The trackbed leading into Padstow now forms part of the Camel Trail, a recreational route for walkers, cyclists and horse riders.
In September 2007, the Bodmin and Wenford Railway announced plans to rebuild the North Cornwall Line from Bodmin Road (now known as Bodmin Parkway, the nearest train station to Padstow now) as far as Wadebridge, following the line of the Camel Trail. The plans have raised speculation as to whether, if realised, they could lead to a further connection to Padstow.
