The restored station building at Corfe Castle in 1986

Corfe Castle railway station is a railway station located in the village of Corfe Castle, in the English county of Dorset. Originally an intermediate station on the London and South Western Railway (L&SWR) branch line from Wareham to Swanage, the line and station were closed by British Rail in 1972. It has since reopened as a station on the Swanage Railway, a heritage railway that runs from Norden station just north of Corfe Castle to Swanage station, and as of 2018 South Western Railway operate summer Saturday services to Wareham, one of which continues to Salisbury via Weymouth and Yeovil. Corfe Castle is on a railway line connecting Wareham and Norden but only certain services continue to Wareham.
