Wootton Wawen railway station serves the village of Wootton Wawen in Warwickshire,England. It is served by trains between Kidderminster and Stratford-upon-Avon via Birmingham.
The station was renamed from Wootton Wawen Platform to Wootton Wawen on 6 May 1974. [1] Under British Rail,the station was threatened with closure in 1985 (along with the line between Henley-in-Arden and Bearley Junction). [2] The plans were dropped in 1987 and the line remains open.
The service in each direction between Kidderminster and Stratford-Upon-Avon via Birmingham Snow Hill and Stourbridge Junction runs hourly every day including Sunday. [3] [4] Until the May 2023 timetable change it was a request stop,meaning that passengers wishing to board a train here needed to signal their intent to board to the driver,and that those wishing to alight here needed to inform the train conductor. [5]
A normal service operates on most Bank holidays.
