The station building to the left is still used by Bablake School - the signal box was demolished only a year or so ago.

Can someone who has knowledge of these things please let me know some info on the Coventry to Leamington train service? I can see from my "Train Times" phone app that there appears to be an hourly service each-way.
Although this train travels past Kenilworth, does Kenilworth have a station as the "Discover Kenilworth" page on WarwickDC web site states that if visiting Kenilworth, the nearest railway station is Coventry or Leamington, then suggests the visitor gets a taxi!
Finally, how many carriages does this service have? (I guess this will depend on the size of the platform at Leamington station)

The service between the two is run by Cross Country Trains - I believe it is generally hourly each way (the journey time isn't very long, 10-15 minutes at the most). Trains are normally made-up of 4 or 5 carriages - more if those DMU's are joined together.
There is no station at Kenilworth (although there are plans to commence construction on a new one in c.2017) you'll have to use public transport - Stagecoach Midlands and National Express Coventry run bus services between the two, or use a taxi.

For those interested, it may be a repeat but there is a program on ITV at 10:30pm tonight telling the story of the rebuilding of the Flying Scotsman. |
