North Elmham railway station is a railway station in the village of North Elmham in the English county of Norfolk. The station is part of a line being restored by the Mid-Norfolk Railway from Dereham to County School railway station.

Materials are currently on site from the former Cambridge - St Ives railway to construct a new platform in preparation for the opening of the MNR's northern section for passengers.

It is also proposed that there will be an additional Halt between this location and Dereham in the small hamlet of Hoe, a popular location for walkers.

There are no train services from this station at this time.
