Gailey railway station was a railway station built by the Grand Junction Railway in 1837. It served the small village of Gailey, Staffordshire, 7 miles north of Wolverhampton City Centre, and was located near to the junction of the A5 and A449 roads.
The original name of the station was Spread Eagle railway station, and was named after a nearby pub. It was renamed Gailey in 1881.
The station closed in 1951, although the Rugby-Birmingham-Stafford Line loop from the West Coast Main Line still runs through the site of the station today.
