Honeybourne railway station serves the village of Honeybourne in Worcestershire, England. Located on the Cotswold Line, it was formerly an important junction boasting four main platforms. The once busy GWR route from Cheltenham Spa to Birmingham Snow Hill via Honeybourne is now closed south of Stratford-upon-Avon and the track mostly lifted. However, a portion of the line survives as the volunteer-run Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway between Toddington and Cheltenham Racecourse railway stations in Gloucestershire. The track to the north remains as a link to the large ex-military depot at Long Marston.
Passenger services at Honeybourne are operated by First Great Western.
