The station opened in August 1942 as part of 3 Group. 156 Squadron moved in with Wellingtons. However within a month both the station and 156 Squadron were transferred to the new Pathfinder force. Converting to Lancasters in January 1943 156 Squadron continued to operate from RAF Warboys until March 1944. RAF Warboys then became a training station for 8 Group with its Night Training Unit with Lancasters and 1655 Mosquito Conversion Unit.
