 Leamington Spa railway station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leamington Spa railway station, situated on Old Warwick Road towards the southern edge of the centre of Leamington, is on the site of the first through station in the town, opened by the Great Western Railway (GWR) on its new line from Birmingham to Oxford in 1852.
Although the station no longer sees, as it once did, through expresses to London (Paddington), the number of train services calling at Leamington today is probably higher today than it has ever been.
The present station, which dates from immediately prior to the Second World War (it was comprehensively rebuilt in 1937–1939), has four platforms, numbered 1 to 4 from south to north.

The city also plays host to one of oldest community radio (or pirate radio) stations in the UK, in the form of P.C.R.L, which began in the early 1980s and mainly plays reggae.

 Brill as Spa Town
(The nearest railway station was, at that time, over 20 miles away.) Worst of all, it is said that Queen Victoria declined to visit Dorton, saying she preferred to patronise Leamington Spa.
A three-storey hotel and a number of boarding houses were built in the centre of Brill, and work started on the Dorton Spa Rural Hotel on the eastern crest of the village, overlooking the Spa itself.
The pungency of the waters, the dearth of social excitement in Brill, and the absence of suitable transport all contributed to the short life of Dorton Spa.
