Elford railway station was a railway station serving the village of Elford and the manor of Haselour Hall in Staffordshire, opened by the Midland Railway in 1850.
It was between Tamworth and Burton upon Trent on the line originally built by the Birmingham and Derby Junction Railway.
Originally, it was called Haselour and later either Elford and Haselour or Haselour and Elford.
It had two platforms on either side of the double track with conventional Midland buildings.
It closed in 1952 but reopened for transporting goods in 1954 through 1973.
