Summary
| Description |
At Bescot Stadium Station, near Walsall (the station is on the Sandwell side of the borough border).
The station was opened as Bescot Bridge in 1837 by the Grand Junction Railway but was later renamed Bescot. It was renamed in Bescot Stadium in 1990 in order to serve Bescot Stadium, the newly built home of Walsall Football Club. The station was re-opened on 11 September 2007 after a short period where it was closed for refurbishment. Whilst closed, no services called at the station, but trains continued to pass through. Bescot Stadium station is on the Walsall Line between Birmingham New Street and Walsall. The typical Monday-Saturday daytime service sees two trains per hour in each direction between Walsall and Birmingham New Street that are operated by Class 323 electric trains. These mostly continue onwards to Wolverhampton via the Stour Valley Line. This service is reduced to one train per hour in the evenings and on Sundays (when they start/terminate at New Street). There are a small number of early morning and late evening trains on weekdays are operated by Class 170 diesel trains and extend past Walsall to either Hednesford or Rugeley Trent Valley. The station footbridge offers views of Bescot Yard, and its freight movements. Bescot TMD is adjacent to the station. Access to the station is via Bescot Crescent (where there is a car park) and then a footpath which passes underneath the M6 motorway and over the River Tame, then an overbridge.
