Wood End is a railway station on the North Warwickshire Line serving the village of Wood End in Warwickshire, England.
Situated on the Stratford-upon-Avon to Birmingham route, the station was opened by the Great Western Railway in 1908 along with the line, and was originally known as Wood End Platform, the suffix was later dropped. The station is located in a deep cutting. Immediately to the south of the station is Wood End tunnel, which is 175 yards (160 m) long.[1]
In 2014, the footbridge over the line was removed and new stairs were installed leading to both platforms from the main road.
