Wanstead Park is a railway station in Forest Gate, London. It is on the Gospel Oak to Barking line in Zone 3, between Leytonstone High Road and Woodgrange Park. Operated by London Overground, there is a half-hourly service for most of the day.

Despite its name, Wanstead Park Station is not situated in Wanstead but in Forest Gate - and it is not near Wanstead Park but Wanstead Flats. The station was opened 9 July 1894.

The station is a short walk away from Forest Gate station, and this interchange is suggested in the National Rail Timetable[1].
