It is served by local services operated by Great Western Railway and is a ten-minute walk from Wargrave High Street.

[1] When the Great Western Railway opened the Henley Branch Line on 1 June 1857, the only intermediate station was Shiplake.

1937 was a particularly busy year as some eight berth camp coaches were positioned here to provide accommodation for parties wishing to witness the coronation.

[citation needed] The station retained its Great Western Railway building until 1988 when British Rail demolished it on the grounds that it was unsafe.

[10] During the Henley Royal Regatta, held every July, a special timetable is operated with additional trains.
