Mansfield railway station serves the large town of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire, England. Alternatively it is named Mansfield Town, probably to distinguish itself from Mansfield Woodhouse. The station is 27 km (17 miles) north of Nottingham on the Robin Hood Line and is managed by Central Trains.

Before the station was re-opened in 1995, the town was the largest in the United Kingdom without one. The then nearest railway station, Alfreton, was known as "Alfreton and Mansfield Parkway".
