Sawdon railway station was situated on the North Eastern Railway's Pickering to Seamer branch line in North Yorkshire, England. It served the village of Brompton-by-Sawdon and to a lesser extent Sawdon itself. The station opened to passenger traffic on 1 May 1882, and closed on 3 June 1950. The station has been restored completely, as holiday accommodation.
