Description
This station has had problems from day one, It was planned to start building it three years ago but they never started till July 2016 which was going to cost 11.3 million.
The first date to open was August 2017 that then went to December 2017 with a cost now of 13.6 million, I spoke to a number of locals who are just fed up with not being able to use a station which looks finished.
When it does eventually open the trains will run Leamington Spa to Coventry and back, but it would of been better I think to have had a shuttle service between Leamington Spa and Nuneaton.
Just found out there is a new date for opening Sunday 18th February but will it. ?? UPDATE There had a new date of 26/02/18 but that has now moved to sometime in MARCH 2018 plus there will be NO Sunday service.

The video discusses the ongoing delays and challenges surrounding the development of Kenilworth Station, which has faced multiple postponed opening dates and increased costs. Locals express frustration over the lack of progress despite the station appearing completed. Once operational, services are expected to run between Leamington Spa and Coventry, though some suggest a shuttle service between Leamington Spa and Nuneaton would have been more beneficial. The current opening date has been pushed into March 2018 without a Sunday service. Railway stock identified includes classes 153 and 66, with Freightliner as the operator. Headcodes 5T80 and 5T81 are also noted, along with locations including Kenilworth, Birmingham New Street, Coventry, Leamington Spa, and Nuneaton.
