Arriving at Rugeley Trent Valley Station

I arrived on a sunny Sunday afternoon at Rugeley Trent Valley Station on the 7th May 2017 at 12:37 on London Midland 170513

The Chase Line is going to be electrified from Walsall towards Rugeley Trent Valley during the summer of 2017 (it's already electrified from Birmingham New Street to Walsall).

Once that is done, these diesel units will be replaced by electric units (faster and cleaner apparently).

On Sunday's the service is one train per hour.

Rugeley Trent Valley is a railway station located on the outskirts of Rugeley in Staffordshire, England. It is one of two stations serving Rugeley, the other being Rugeley Town. The Trent Valley station is within the Colton parish, on the opposite side of the River Trent from the town of Rugeley. London Midland operates the station, and all trains serving it; a passenger-operated self-service ticket machine has been placed at the station entrance (which is on the southbound (Rugby-bound) platform).

It is a minor station on the Trent Valley section of the West Coast Main Line. It is also the junction with the Chase Line from Birmingham and Walsall.
