The station was located off Midland Road near the present day fire station which now occupies the station site. There is also a new build housing estate nearby called "Old Railway Mews". OpeningThe first station to serve Swadlincote was in the nearby Castle Gresley settlement quite a distance from the town. This section was authorised under the Midland Railway (Leicester and Swannington Alteration) Act of 1846 and although recorded as opening to passengers in 1851 much of the line had been completed by as early as September 1849. UsageThe line was more for industrial use for the local mines and collieries but was also used for passenger services with stations at both {{stnlnk|Woodville|Derbyshire}} and Swadlincote. The through services ran from {{stnlnk|Leicester West Bridge}} to {{stnlnk|Swannington}} but there were also services to {{stnlnk|Burton-upon-Trent}} and {{stnlnk|Nuneaton}}. ClosureThe line suffered from the effects of the second world war and as a result. Passenger services were withdrawn from the line in 1947. The services were never reintroduced and the line remained in use for industrial traffic until 1964 when the line was closed and dismantled in 1965. Present daySwadlincote railway station site is now occupied by a fire station. The trackbed towards Woodville now a retail park and towards Burton is mostly intact. {{Disused Rail Start}}{{rail line|previous={{rws|Burton-on-Trent}}Line and station closed |next=Woodville Line and station closed |route=Midland Railway Swadlincote Loop Line|col={{MR colour}}}}{{rail end}} Map
