Winterbourne railway station served the South Gloucestershire village of Winterbourne, England, from 1903 to 1963.
Future
Improved services on the Yate/Weston-super-Mare axis are called for as part of the Greater Bristol Metro scheme, a rail transport plan which aims to enhance transport capacity in the Bristol area. This could see Winterbourne reopened. The Metro scheme was given the go-ahead in July 2012 as part of the City Deal, whereby local councils would be given greater control over money by the government.
