Bearley railway station serves the village of Bearley in South Warwickshire, England. It is on the Leamington–Stratford line. Today it is an unstaffed rural halt, managed by West Midlands Railway.

Bearley was once a junction station (a branch line to Alcester met the Stratford-upon-Avon to Hatton line here). The station dates from 1860, when it opened as part of the Stratford on Avon Railway's Hatton to Stratford branch line - the Alcester branch was added in 1876, but this closed in 1951. Originally a single track station, the line was doubled in 1939 and a second platform built; it reverted to its current status in 1969 when the line was reduced to single track once more.

The station in 1963

Services[]

Chiltern Railways[]

Bearley is served by approximately one train every 2 hours Monday-Saturday, to Leamington Spa via Hatton and Warwick along the Leamington-Stratford line and to Stratford-upon-Avon. On weekdays, during the afternoon peak, in order to run additional services some trains start/terminate at Hatton or Warwick where connections are available for Leamington Spa and onwards to London Marylebone. Some services extend to Banbury or London Marylebone. Some Chiltern Railways services do not call here and run non stop between Stratford-upon-Avon and Hatton or Warwick ^[1]

West Midlands Railway[]

Bearley is also served by a limited service between Stratford-upon-Avon and Kidderminster which stops on request only. Passengers wishing to alight must inform the senior conductor of their intention to alight prior to departure at the previous station. Passengers wishing to board the train must show a clear hand signal to the driver once the train is in sight. These services mainly run during the weekday morning and evening peak and on Saturday morning and evening. All other West Midlands Railway services pass through without stopping.

There is no Sunday service at Bearley. The nearest stations with a Sunday service are Wilmcote and Wootton Wawen.
