{{Infobox UK station|name = South Wigston|code = SWS|image =|manager =
Central Trains|borough = [Oadby and Wigston near [Leicester, England The station is located on the Birmingham to Peterborough Line 3 km (1¾ miles) south of Leicester railway station.
The first station was built by the
Midland Counties Railway in
1840 on its line to
Rugby, Warwickshire. The present station was built in 1986. Only selected trains running between
Birmingham and Leicester stop here.
The station is unmanned so passengers have to purchase their tickets on the train. Facilities on the platform consist of two "bus shelter" like canopies to protect passengers against the weather and a time-table notice board.
History
Wigston is the point where the
Midland Railway diverted its line in
1857 to
Rugby railway station, building a new line to Hitchin railway station (and later to
St Pancras railway station).
At this point the
London and North Western Railway line from
Blaby and Nuneaton railway station, which had its own station
Glen Parva, joined the Midland in a northerly direction. The station on the old Midland Counties Railway line was renamed
Wigston South, while a new station
Wigston Magna was built on the main line slightly south of the junction. In
1860 the Midland acquired running powers on the Nuneaton line, which was later extended to Whitacre, and a south curve was added in 1872. All of these stations closed in
1968 to be replaced by the present
South Wigston situated on the North Curve of the triangular junction.
In its heyday, Wigston was an important interchange point with a large sidings and wagon repair shop. A mpd was added in 1873. This closed in
1934 but was reopened during World War II while Leicester shed was being rebuilt and then stayed open until 1955.
Services
Mondays to Saturdays, there is generally a two-hourly service off-peak and hourly peak service northbound to Leicester and southbound to
Birmingham New Street. Sundays, strangely enough, there is generally an hourly service in each direction.
