Billingham railway station serves the town of Billingham, within the borough of Stockton-on-Tees and the ceremonial county of County Durham, England. It is located on the Durham Coast Line and is operated by Northern Rail who provide all of the station's passenger services.
The station is a modern-style halt on the line, the town's original larger grander station to the west towards Norton having being demolished in the 1970s. It was next to the old route of the A19.
The Tees Valley Rail Strategy calls for the re-opening of the original station as 'Old Billingham' as a new additional station on the Durham Coast Line. However, the plans have yet to come to fruition.
