Braughing railway station served the village of Braughing, Hertfordshire, England, on the Buntingford branch line. It opened on 3 July 1863 by the Great Eastern Railway and had two platforms. The station stood on the south side of Station Road (B1368). On the up platform was the station building; at the north end of the down platform was the signal box that gave access to the goods yard. The yard had a goods shed, a cattle dock siding, and capacity for 50 wagons. These facilities were withdrawn on 7 September 1964. The station closed on 16 November 1964. The platform and station building still remain and have been rebuilt and maintained. The station even appears in the 1954 film Happy Ever After.
