Burnham railway station is the railway station for Burnham, Buckinghamshire, although strictly speaking it lies in Cippenham, the suburb of Slough, about half a mile to the south of Burnham proper.

The station is served by local services operated by First Great Western from London Paddington to Reading stations. The station is on the Great Western Main Line, the original line of the Great Western Railway. From opening in July 1899, the station was named Burnham Beeches, becoming Burnham (Bucks) from 1 September 1930 to 5 May 1975, and then purely Burnham. The station was closed as a First World War economy measure from April 1917 to March 1919.[1]
