As we reported a few days ago, Thursday 9th April saw the opening of a new tramstop on the South Yorkshire Supertram network with Magna welcoming its first passengers. Located on the Tram-Train route it is on Network Rail infrastructure and as such is more than just a normal tramstop with an accessible bridge and plenty of safety features to try and prevent people from being tempted onto the tracks (it is of course a low floor platform). This pictorial article with images from Stuart Cooke takes a look around the stop.
On-board one of the tram-trains and we take a look at the on-board passenger information display telling us that the next stop is Magna.
Magna stop signage including a helpful sign telling passengers where tram-train services will go from this particular platform.
Passenger information including a full route map, timetable, ticket info and warnings of forthcoming closures.
Looking down from the bridge towards the 100-space car park. Plenty of spaces on this occasion!
Here we see the Sheffield bound platform.
The platforms are staggered here as we see here taken from the Sheffield bound platform towards the Rotherham one with the footbridge also seen. Also note that similar to Rotherham Central the small barrier between the tracks is there to prevent people from taking a short-cut. (All Photographs by Stuart Cooke, 11th April 2026)
