Shilton railway station was a railway station serving Shilton in the English county of Warwickshire, on the Trent Valley Line of the LNWR.
It was situated where Church Road crosses the line. The booking office was built on the bridge, with steps down to the two island platforms. Initially there were two running lines when the station opened in 1847. A third up line was added between Bulkington and Rugby in 1871, for which an extra arch was built for the bridge. This became a passenger line in 1876 utilising the opposite side of the up platform, and a further line provided sidings for 22 wagons. On the down side was a refuge siding from under the bridge, which later became the down goods and also became a loop from the main line. However although it ran next to the platform, it was fenced off.
