Wellingborough railway station serves the town of
Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, England. It lies on the Midland Main Line, it is 104 km (65 miles) from St Pancras railway station and is served in the main part of the day by semi-fast stopping
Midland Mainline British Rail Class 222 services.
The station is to the east of the town. It is also the closest station to the town of Rushden.
When the Wellingborough east development takes place, the station will be rotated. The main buildings - ticket office, toilets, etc will move to the other side of the tracks and platform 4 will be baught back into use.
History
It was built by the Midland Railway in
1857 on its extension from
Leicester railway station to
Bedford railway station and Hitchin. It was known for a time as
Wellingborough Midland Road to distinguish from one built by the London and North Western Railway in
1866 at
Wellingborough London Road on its line between Northampton and Peterborough which has long disappeared. A curve linked the two stations from west to north.
The buildings, designed by C. A. Driver, still exist, though in altered form.
Wellingborough also had a large
mpd with two roundhouses, the first built 1868, the second in 1872.
The station was the scene of a serious accident in 1898 when a trolley ran off the platform in front of a Manchester express. The crew and six passengers were killed and sixty-five injured.
Services
There is generally a half-hourly service to St Pancras railway station (southbound) and to either
Derby railway station or
Nottingham railway station via
Leicester railway station (northbound) operated by Midland Mainline Meridian trains.
General Information
Wellingborough has three platforms: two are regularly used, one occasionally, and another platform face with no trackwork. The station was formerly the junction for a branch to Higham Ferrers railway station and there is now a preservation movement to reopen this route (see Rushden, Higham & Wellingborough Railway).
From Bedford to Wellingborough the Midland Main Line is unusual for being a three-tracked main line. Other instances of this occurring are around Nuneaton railway station on the
West Coast Main Line and on the Cross City line in
Birmingham. Before rationalisation this formation was part of the longest continuous four-track layout in the UK, extending from London St. Pancras to Glendon Junction.
