Foxton railway station serves the village of Foxton in Cambridgeshire, England. The station (as well as the trains serving it) is operated by Great Northern. It is located north of a busy level crossing, which is monitored from the nearby signal box. There is also a freight-only branch (the Barrington Light Railway) that diverges to the west beyond the crossing south of the station, which serves a nearby cement factory & quarry.
