Gobowen railway station is a railway station on the Shrewsbury to Chester Line of the former Great Western Railway's London Paddington to Birkenhead Woodside via Birmingham Snow Hill line, serving the village of Gobowen in Shropshire, England. It is the nearest station to the town of Oswestry.
The station building was designed by Thomas Mainwaring Penson, and is a Grade II listed building. The station was built between 1846 and 1848 by the Shrewsbury and Chester Railway in a notable Florentine style with white stucco facing and a small turret. The awnings and the footbridge were added later by the Great Western Railway . Although a very small village, Gobowen was the junction station for the much larger regional town of Oswestry some three miles away. When rail services to Oswestry ceased in November 1966, Gobowen was retained as the railhead for the surrounding area. There is a scheme in progress to open this branch as a heritage railway. Until 1967 Gobowen was served by the GWR, latterly BR Western Region, express services between London Paddington and Birkenhead Woodside.
