Water Orton

I was wondering if Water Orton station is still open ?
What trains stop there in this day and age ?

Hi Peter, Yes, Water Orton is open and is a stop on the hourly Birmingham-Leicester-Eastern Counties service. It also has a very few trains on the Birmingham-Tamworth-Derby service. Hope you're keeping well?

Regards, 62440.

It's still open.

If you go to http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/en/s/ldbboard/dep/WTO
you can find out the next departures from it.

Appears to be one Leicester - Birmingham (& vice versa) every other hour.

EDIT : 62440 probably has more accurate info than me.
