Rail ticket sales - 2005 to 2011 - SN

The diagram shows how rail traffic (measured by tickets sold) has grown or shunk in the five years since 2005 at each of the various stations in a region - in this case SN. Figures for 2004-5 are taken as 100%, and then each of the following years is shown for each station as a percentage of that figure.

Dark blue - over 500,000 entries / exits in 2005
Red - over 50,000 but less that 500,000 entries
Green - over 5,000 but less than 50,000 entries
Pink - over 500 but less than 5,000 entries

Here is the raw data:

	2005	2006	2007	2008	2009	2010	2011	2005 -> 2011 change
Pewsey	142084	147390	150911	169733	178992	181872	202962	142.8%
Swindon	2257719	2340952	2515492	2758891	2905266	2835364	3039228	134.6%
Chippenham	1257940	1315654	1414824	1473561	1560906	1516726	1653544	131.4%
Bedwyn	78439	74773	77048	81160	83718	83492	94584	120.6%
Melksham	27446	24426	22001	38081	27656	10028	11046	40.2%

Average percentage from 2005 to 2011 is 132.89% over 5 stations in the area.

Data is for year up to 31st March (e.g. "2011" is 1st April 2010 to 31st March 2011). Figures are Department for Transport published figures for total ticket sales for entrances and exits at specific stations and are subject to the caveats in their reports. The graph excludes stations with less that 500 entrances / exits (or not open) in the year to 31st March 2005. Where a percentage is given in the final column, it's the data for 2011 as a percentage of the 2005 data; we do not calculate / display the percentage for stations without data or with very few passengers indeed in either of these two years as it could mislead.
