History

The station was previously known as Canley Halt railway station.

There was a railway level crossing adjacent to the station until 2002 (approximately) when the road was closed and a footbridge was built over the railway line. Level crossings at Berkswell railway station and Tile Hill railway station were removed in 2004 (approximate date) to upgrade the line for more high speed trains.

It has two platforms, a small booking office and waiting room. It has two trains per hour in each direction during the week.
