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. There are platform faces on the two tracks which serve the station and there is a crossover just north of the station.

Platforms

Both platforms are on the level with the surrounding area and the two are connected by an underpass. Trains from Platform 1 go towards Birmingham/Stratford upon Avon whilst trains from Platform 2 go towards Leamington/London.

Facilities

The station is equipped with real-time electronic information departure boards, A staffed ticket office is open for part of the day; there is also a self-service ticket machine located outside the station building, which is on the northbound platform. There is an indoor waiting room by Platform 1 and two outside waiting shelters, one on each platform. There is a 'Permit-to-Travel' machine on the northbound platform.

Although car parking is available at the station it is limited and there is a charge for it. A local taxi company called Castle Cabs shares the main station building with Chiltern Railways.

The station is managed by Chiltern Railways. Most trains calling here are those provided by Chiltern on its London Marylebone/Leamington Spa/Birmingham Snow Hill/Kidderminster and London Marylebone/Leamington Spa/Stratford routes, but these are augmented by a few London Midland services.
