North Berwick railway station is a railway station serving the seaside town of North Berwick in East Lothian, Scotland. It is the terminus on the Edinburgh to North Berwick Line 36 km (22¼ miles) east of Edinburgh Waverley.

The original station complex featured two platforms, however this was demolished and only a single platform now remains. There have been many attempts at closure.
