Tutbury and Hatton Station is a railway station on the Crewe-Derby Line in England. The station is served by trains on the Crewe to Derby Line which is also a Community rail line known as the North Staffordshire line.

History
The original station, called simply Tutbury, was opened on 11 September 1848 by the North Staffordshire Railway. Nestlé have a historical presence in the village of Hatton due to the surrounding farmland, which supported a strong dairy farming industry. Nestlé's factory is labelled by the company as their Tutbury factory. Until the late 1970s the factory had its own private siding, which gave access to milk trains from the station. The factory since has developed into a major coffee producer, the sole UK facility producing the Dolce Gusto range, and also Nescafé, which is also made in Hayes.[2]
Present
The present station was opened in 1989 and serves the villages of Tutbury in Staffordshire, and Hatton in Derbyshire. Due to space restrictions, the platforms are not opposite one another, but instead straddle the A511 road, where a signal box controls the level crossing. The station is unmanned. All services are provided by East Midlands Trains.
