The station is located on the Hutt Valley section of the Wairarapa Line, {{convert|14.4|km|mi|abbr=on}} north of Wellington, and is the junction for the Gracefield Branch to the Hutt Railway Workshops, which diverges eastward from the main line to the south of the station. Woburn served is by Tranz Metro on behalf of the Greater Wellington Regional Council, with trains stopping at Woburn travelling to Wellington, Taita and Upper Hutt. The station has an island platform between double tracks. HistoryThe station was one of the three new stations on the then Hutt Valley Branch, opened on 26 May 1927. From 1 March 1954 with the closing of the Melling-Haywards section, this route became the main route to Upper Hutt and the Wairarapa. Woburn station was rebuilt at the time of electrification (c1955). The old Waterloo building was added to the existing Woburn building. Woburn had four sidings to provide shunting space for trains reversing when travelling to or from the workshops, but why a triangle was never built between the two lines has never been fully explained (Hoy). [1]Woburn was initially an interchange for bus and rail services, but in 1986 the Hutt Valley Transport Study decided that Waterloo was a more logical choice. Waterloo was closer to centres of residential and commercial interest, had sufficient room for bus platforms to be installed, and was not burdened with other operational requirements such as Woburn being the junction with the Gracefield Branch, with its loops and sidings. The new interchange facility at Waterloo was opened on 26 November 1988, and fully integrated with all the new public transport routes and timetables by the following March. ServicesNo Metlink bus routes connect to Woburn Station directly, although the following pass by closely:
