From the A1(M) Junction 4 follow the signs to Welwyn Garden City. At the sports centre roundabout take the second exit and continue to the next roundabout. Here take the first exit and continue down this road. The Howard Centre car park is off the next roundabout.
There is plenty of parking available in the Howard Centre multi story car park.
There is a coffee shop on the station platform. The Howard Centre has a cafe and some newsagents. Out side the Howard's Centre there is a McDonalds and down the street to the right a chip shop.
The station has four platforms; all these are located on slow roads with the fast roads being in the centre. The overhead line masts are located on the platform giving clear views in both directions through the station. The over bridge is can provide good views of the yard but it is covered over when crossing the main lines.
The Howard Centre car park also provides good views of the south of the station.
Station lights are of the tungsten variety so night time photography will need appropriate compensation measures.
