Isham and Burton Latimer railway station was built by the Midland Railway in 1857 to serve the villages of Isham and Burton Latimer on its extension from Leicester to Bedford and Hitchin. It closed in 1950 though the buildings remain unused.[2]

Slightly north of it was a branch line which ran until 1969 to Thrapston and Huntingdon.
