Bricket Wood railway station serves the village of Bricket Wood in Hertfordshire, England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Silverlink. It is on the St Albans Branch Line.
[edit] History
The station once boasted a passing loop and second platform that could accommodate long excursion trains. Many Edwardian families from London came to Bricket Wood to enjoy the fresh air, woodland and two large funfairs which once stood nearby.
The station building at Bricket Wood, long disused, is now the only surviving original building on the line.
[edit] Services
Trains operate between Watford Junction and St Albans Abbey, every 45 minutes in each direction Monday to Saturday, and every hour on Sundays.
