Tile Hill railway station is situated in the west of Tile Hill, Coventry, in the West Midlands of England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by London Midland. ==History== The station was opened in 1850, and was originally known as ''Allesley Lane'', in 1857 it was renamed ''Allesley Gate'', it assumed its current name of ''Tile Hill'' in 1864. The station was located at a point where the railway crossed the road on a level crossing. It originally had staggered platforms, with one platform on one side of the level crossing, and the other on the other side.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://warwickshirerailways.com/lms/tilehill.htm )〕 The station was completely rebuilt when the line was electrified in the 1960s in its present more conventional form.〔(Warwickshirerailways lnwrth713 )〕 The level crossing adjacent to the railway station lasted until approximately 2004, when a large bridge was built to carry road traffic over the railway and a footbridge built to connect the station platforms. Level crossings at the Berkswell railway station and the Canley railway station have also been removed to upgrade the line to carry more high speed trains. In 2009 the railway platform was extended, almost doubling the size. This was also the case for a number of smaller stations on this route. Historically this has been a busy railway station used by many residents in the surrounding area; however, recently after the sale of the overflow carpark to developers there have been substantial parking issues at the station.
