The station retains a ticket office which is staffed seven days a week, a car park, and help points for times where there are no staff present. A single daily return service to London St Pancras commenced on 27 April 2009 running via Corby and is notable for being the first regular passenger service to cross the spectacular and historic Welland Viaduct since 1966. The company introduced a further return service from Derby via East Midlands Parkway (for East Midlands Airport) from May 2010. Further services may be introduced in the future. The initial London service had been due to start on 14 December 2008, but owing to a delay in reaching agreement with the Department for Transport and the rolling stock company (ROSCO) for the four additional trains needed for the service, EMT started the service around four months later. Former services Prior to the Beeching Axe, trains used to stop at a number of smaller village destinations in Rutland. These were closed between 1961 and 1966.
