Brookwood is a National Rail railway station in Brookwood in the English county of Surrey. It was constructed to serve the adjacent Brookwood Cemetery and was at one stage served by its own station in London (London Necropolis railway station) for the funeral trains. A branch line left from the main line station to serve two stations within the cemetery, Brookwood Cemetery North and Brookwood Cemetery South. The branch line (and stations) have now closed, but the mainline station remains and is now a popular commuter station on the South Western Main Line between London Waterloo and Basingstoke, served by South West Trains. The exit to the cemetery remains.
