History
In 1887 local residents began to petition the Midland Railway for a station with the support of their local MP, Sydney Evershed.[1] The railway company agreed and the station was subsequently opened on 1 October 1889.
It was situated between Tamworth and Burton upon Trent stations on the line originally built by the Birmingham and Derby Junction Railway.[2]
With the arrival of local bus services, passenger numbers decreased and the last train called on Sunday 21 September 1930.[3]
