London North Western Railway - Stations and other important locations in the County of Warwickshire

The following is a list of Stations, Junctions, Goods Depots, etc, which at one time were part of the County of Warwickshire. This includes stations such as the L&NWR's and Midland Railway's stations in Tamworth which when their stations were first built was part of Warwickshire but ceded to Staffordshire in 1889. The list also includes a number of stations from towns and villages which had previously been part of other counties such as Staffordshire and Worcestershire but after being absorbed into the City of Birmingham became part of the County of Warwickshire. Examples include Kings Norton, Bournville, Barnt Green, etc on the Midland Railway's line to Gloucester. Finally a small number of stations from other counties which were never part of Warwickshire have been included where their inclusion completes a route. On example being the Midland Railway's Birmingham to Evesham route where Evesham, Harvington, Redditch and Alvechurch have been included to complete all stations along the line. We have included the stations on the Harborne line as being part of the L&NWR's list because whilst the Harborne Railway was indepently owned until 1923 when it was absorbed into the LMS, it was operated by the L&NWR. Where a station was known by more than one name we have endeavoured to list them separately but linked both to the same station page. As this information is currently incomplete the list will be updated when we find the information. We have also provided a map showing the railways within and around the County of Warwickshire as well as providing the information for each railway company.
