Haydon Bridge is a railway station on the Tyne Valley Line, which runs between Newcastle and Carlisle via Hexham. The station, situated 29 miles 68 chains (29.8 mi; 48.0 km) west of Newcastle, serves the village of Haydon Bridge in Northumberland.

The Newcastle and Carlisle Railway was formed in 1829, and was opened in stages. The station opened as a terminus in June 1836, following the opening of the line between Hexham and Haydon Bridge. In June 1838, the line was extended to Greenhead. The nearby station at Fourstones closed in January 1967. In the same year, the station became an unstaffed halt, along with most of the other stations on the line that escaped the Beeching Axe. The original station building remains as a private residence.

The station’s distinctive manually operated wooden level crossing gates were replaced by automated lifting barriers in January 2009, although they remain under the control of the adjacent North Eastern Railway signal box.
