Thurgarton railway station serves the village of Thurgarton in Nottinghamshire, England.

In 1880, the village had a station on the Midland Railway and John Kind was the first station master. At the station much of the original décor remains apart from the electric barriers added later. The buildings were designed by Thomas Chambers Hine.

The station is now (like most British stations) owned by Network Rail and managed by a Train Operating Company (TOC), in this case East Midlands Trains (EMT) who provide services to the station on the Nottingham to Lincoln Line.
