Bulwell station is a railway station and tram stop in Bulwell, Nottingham, England.
It is located on the Robin Hood Line and the Hucknall branch of the Nottingham Express Transit.
The station used to have a PlusBus scheme where train and bus tickets could be bought together giving a saving on the cost of separate tickets. However this was withdrawn due to low usage.[citation needed] A Nottingham and Beeston Plusbus are still valid to Bulwell on buses and trams but cannot be bought for rail journeys starting/ending at Bulwell.
