Yeoford railway station is a rural station serving the village of Yeoford in Devon, England. It is on the Tarka Line to Barnstaple, 11 miles 42 chains from Exeter Central at milepost 183 from London Waterloo.
The station was opened by the North Devon Railway in July 1857. On 1 November 1865 the first section of the Okehampton Railway opened from Yeoford to North Tawton, although the new railway ran alongside the existing North Devon line almost to Coleford. This route was to become the London and South Western Railway main line to Plymouth. To carry this extra traffic the line was doubled from Crediton to Yeoford on 1 June 1876 and onwards to a new Coleford Junction on 16 May 1877. The platform for trains going towards Plymouth and Barnstaple was given an extra track so trains could stand on both sides.
