The first opened in 1832 as the wastern terminus of the Leicester and Swannington Railway.

The Midland Railway took over the line in 1845 and extended it westwards to in 1848, creating the Leicester to Burton upon Trent Line. The extension avoided the Swanningon Incline by taking a new alignment beginning from a junction east of Swannington near . The new line passed south of the original terminus and a new Swannington station was opened on it, leaving the original Swannington terminus to remain as a goods depot. The second Swannington station was closed in 1951 but the line remains open for freight traffic.
