Notes | |
Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road |
Originally opened as Earlswood Lakes in mid-1908, the station was renamed Earlswood on 6 May 1974 [1] despite being located next to the settlement of Foreshaw Heath and The Lakes railway station being located closer to Earlswood village.
The station is served by hourly trains in each direction (Mon-Sat) between Birmingham Snow Hill and Stratford-upon-Avon, with most Birmingham services continuing to Kidderminster. On Sundays, Birmingham trains continue to Worcester Foregate Street.[2]
