Tyseley railway station serves the district of TyseleyinBirmingham, West Midlands, England. It is at the junction of the lines linking Birmingham with Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon.
West Midlands Trains manages the station and operates all of the trains that serve it.
The main station building is on a bridge over the tracks, on the Wharfedale Road (B4146). It is next to a railway depot and Tyseley Locomotive Works.
The Great Western Railway opened the station in 1906. It is on what was the GWR main line between London Paddington and Birkenhead Woodside. It was built with four platforms, but later British Railways took platforms 1 and 2 out of use.
Since the mid-1990s traffic on the line has increased. In 2007–08 Network Rail resignalled the line between Birmingham and Warwick, modified the track at Tyseley and restored platforms 1 and 2 to use.
Trains to and from Solihull are now able to use the new 60 mph (97 km/h) Tyseley North Junction. Two new junctions have been built at each end of the station, which allow non-stopping services between Solihull and Birmingham Snow Hill to cross at 60 mph.
On Mondays to Saturdays, daytime service is generally three trains per hour.
Westbound:
Eastbound:
On Sundays, there is an hourly service each way - eastbound to Stratford-upon-Avon via Shirley and westbound to Worcester Foregate Street.
Tyseley is no longer served by Chiltern Railways services as of the May 2023 timetable change.[3][4] Services used to run southbound towards Banbury, High Wycombe and Marylebone.
