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.
