Prees railway station


Prees railway station serves the village of Prees in Shropshire, England, although the station is a mile to the west of the village and in the parish of Wem Rural. The station is from South Junction on the Welsh Marches Line. It was opened by the Crewe and Shrewsbury Railway in 1858.
The station has two platforms and trains only stop here upon request. It is managed by Transport for Wales

Facilities

It is unstaffed and has no ticketing provision - tickets must be bought on the train or prior to travel. The old buildings that once stood here have been demolished and only standard waiting shelters are now provided. Train running information is offered via CIS displays, timetable posters and customer help points on each side. Step-free access is available to both platforms via ramps and the road crossing at the north end.

Services

Monday to Saturdays there is generally a two-hourly service from here southbound to Shrewsbury and northbound to Crewe. These are mostly local trains stopping at all stations en route, but two on weekdays continue to via the Heart of Wales Line and some early morning and late evening trains are through trains to either Manchester Piccadilly or Cardiff Central. Six southbound and four northbound trains call on Sundays.
