Blakedown railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blakedown railway station serves the English village of Blakedown, Worcestershire. It was opened (as Churchill station) in 1852, and was later known as Churchill & Blakedown before adopting its current name.
The station is unstaffed, with only a basic shelter on each platform. There is a level crossing immediately to the west of the platforms, and in the absence of a footbridge or subway this is also the only method for passengers to cross the tracks.
Almost all trains serving Blakedown are operated by Central Trains. As of the summer 2006 timetable, the only other operator's train to stop at the station is a single Chiltern Railways Kidderminster-London service which calls in the morning rush hour.
