Rugeley Town railway station serves the town of Rugeley in Staffordshire, England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by London Midland.
[edit] History
The station opened in 1997, as the second stage of the reopening to passengers of the Chase Line saw the extension of services beyond Hednesford. The following year, the short section of track between Rugeley Town and Rugeley Trent Valley stations was also reopened, allowing services to be extended via the Trent Valley section of the West Coast Main Line to Stafford.
[edit] Services
Typically, Rugeley Town is served by one train per hour in each direction between Birmingham New Street and Stafford. At peak times on weekdays, there are some additional trains between Birmingham New Street and Rugeley Town, although there are no trains on weekday evenings.
