Welcome to the ShakespeareLine.com website, which aims to promote travel along The Shakespeare Line between the City of Birmingham and Stratford upon Avon.

Stations along this line serve the City’s shopping and business districts, urban suburbs, market towns, rural communities and Stratford upon Avon’s international visitor centre and facilities.

The Shakespeare Line offers residents and visitors quick, convenient and economical travel for business, leisure and educational purposes.

Shoppers, in particular, find the trains a quick and easy way to get to the Birmingham, Stratford and Henley markets and for other shopping outings.


The route is relatively unusual as it is used by regular modern diesel services and seasonal heritage steam train operations.

Over 2 million passengers per annum use the stations between Stratford and Small Heath, with many of those people using Birmingham Moor Street and Snow Hill stations travelling to and from other Shakespeare Line stations.

In addition, many thousands of adults and children each Summer enjoy the unique experience of mainline steam train travel on the famous Shakespeare Express.

ShakespeareLine.com is designed to provide an initial focus of information on the benefits of using the route, together with an insight into the wide range of features and attractions available along the line.

It is effectively an introduction and a gateway to other websites where more comprehensive information can be obtained on a selection of topics.

It is not, itself, an advertising website. However, it does provide a selection of easy links that you may wish to follow up. So just click for times, fares, operations, venues, attractions, visitor and area information etc.

We are sure you will find ShakespeareLine.com informative and practical.

If you are a visitor, you can find out what to do, where to go and how to get there.

If you are a resident, you will find details of convenient local travel options and perhaps even learn something new about your area.

So please browse this website, use the links and please do let your friends know what The Shakespeare Line has to offer.
