Bloxwich North railway station serves the town of Bloxwich, in the Metropolitan Borough of Walsall, West Midlands, England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by London Midland.

[edit] History

The Chase Line from Walsall to Hednesford was reopened to passenger trains in 1989. Bloxwich North station opened the following year to serve an area of new housing on the northern edge of the town. Initially, the station was just opened experimentally, although it has remained in place since then. Before opening, the station was known as Broad Lane, and it was possible to buy tickets to or from there to supplement a West Midlands pass.

[edit] Services

Typically, Bloxwich North is served by one train per hour in each direction between Birmingham New Street and Stafford. At peak times on weekdays, there are additional trains between Birmingham New Street and Hednesford or Rugeley Town.
