The Battlefield Line Railway Stations The Battlefield Line Railway has three operational stations. Shackerstone, Market Bosworth and Shenton. Below is a brief description of each of the station plus links to their history, locations and nearby places of interest. Shackerstone Station Shackerstone Station is the headquarters of the railway with John Jacques Railwayana Museum, tea rooms, shop, locomotive shed and main rolling stock located here.  The Ashby Canal is just a stones throw from the stations front door. The villages of Shackerstone, Congerstone, Bilston and Twycross have links with the former stately home Gopsall Hall. It was here that Handel wrote the Messiah and where King Edward VII was an occasional visitor via Shackerstone Station. How to Find Shackerstone Station Market Bosworth Station Market Bosworth Station is located approximately one mile west and down the hill from the town centre. The pretty town of Market Bosworth is of course forever linked with the famous battle and still retains its market to this day. A small band of volunteers are working towards waking up this sleepy station and bringing it back to life. There is the original  LNWR signalbox and Goods Shed, plus other railway buildings rescued from further afield. How to Find Market Bosworth Station Shenton Station Shenton Station is located close to the centre of Bosworth Field, the site of the last great medieval battle and the final battle of the War of the Roses - "A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!", and all that! The Battlefield Visitor Centre is about 10 minutes walk from the station.  Nearby is the Station Pottery and a miles walk south is Sutton Cheney Wharf where boat rides are available with The Ashby Trip. In Shenton village there is Whitemoors Antique Centre. How to find Shenton Station
