Warwick railway station serves the town of Warwick in Warwickshire, England. The station is served by Chiltern Railways (who manage the station), and also occasionally by London Midland and CrossCountry. It is located one and a half miles from the town centre although it is in the inner suburbs. It was opened in 1852 by the Great Western Railway Company and the main building has remained virtually the same ever since.

Platforms

Both platforms are on the level with the surrounding area and the two are connected by an underpass. Trains from Platform One go towards Birmingham whilst trains from Platform Two go to London.

Facilities

The station is equipped with real-time electronic information departure boards, two windowed ticket booths and one automatic ticket machine. There is an indoor waiting room by Platform One and two outside waiting shelters, one on each platform. Although car parking is available at the station it is limited and there is a charge for it. A local taxi company shares the main station building with Chiltern Railways.
