Wingham Town railway station was a railway station on the East Kent Light Railway, which served the village of Wingham. It opened in 1920 and closed to passenger traffic on 30 October 1948. There was a loop when the station first opened, but this was removed when the line was extended to the Canterbury Road station in 1925.[1] Today the site of the station is occupied by a row of private garages and the village Scout Hut.
