Aldeburgh railway station was a station in Aldeburgh, Suffolk. It was opened in 1860 by the East Suffolk Railway, and later came under the control of the Great Eastern Railway. The terminus of an 8.5 mile branch line to Saxmundham, the station closed in 1966 as part of the Beeching Axe as much of the British rural rail network was cut back.
The East Suffolk Railway had opened a branch line between Saxmundham and Leiston predominantly to serve Garretts engineering works on 1 June 1859. The town of Aldeburgh lobbied hard and permission to extend the branch was granted on 19 April 1859. The line was built by the Eastern Counties Railway who had taken over the operation of the East Suffolk Railway. The new station opened on 12 April 1860 and situated half a mile inland from the coast.
