HistoryIt was opened in 1849.[1] The station was built and served by the South Staffordshire Railway, which later became the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (through amalgamation of the London and North Western Railway). Unlike Wednesbury and Great Bridge further up the line, this station was never assigned another name when a second station was opened by the Midland Railway. It closed as part of the Beeching Axe in January 1965. Goods trains continued to pass through the site until March 1984, when the line was completely closed. It is preserved in case the railway line between Walsall and Lichfield reopens. Station site today{{unreferenced|section|date=May 2018}}The trackbed between Pelsall and Brownhills is currently overgrown but still walkable until the bridge over the canal, with the trackbed to Brownhills and towards Hammerwich being heavily overgrown and boggy. Over the decades it has been used as a litter dumping ground and the trackbed and station site are covered in forest and boggy puddles. It was recently cleared by a local group called "Back the Track". {{Disused Rail Start}}{{rail line|previous=Hammerwich|next=Pelsall|route=South Staffordshire RailwayLater LNWR, then LMS, finally BR South Staffs Line (1849-1965)|col=330033}}{{S-end}} References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.railaroundbirmingham.co.uk/Stations/brownhills.php|title=Brownhills Station (LNWR)|work=Rail Around Birmingham and the West Midlands|accessdate=30 March 2017}} {{West Midlands railway stations|disused}}{{WestMidlands-struct-stub}}{{WestMidlands-railstation-stub}} 6 : Disused railway stations in Walsall|Railway stations opened in 1849|Railway stations closed in 1965|Beeching closures in England|1849 establishments in England|Former London and North Western Railway stations |
