Wallsend Railway Station, is now a Tyne and Wear Metro station, serving the town of Wallsend, North Tyneside in Tyne and Wear, England. It joined the network on 14 November 1982, following the opening of the fourth phase of the network, between Tynemouth and St James via Wallsend.

The station stands on the site of the former Wallsend station, which opened in 1839, as part of the Newcastle and North Shields Railway. This later became part of the North Tyneside Loop, served by the North Eastern Railway. Following closure for conversion in the early 1980s, the station was demolished and re-built.

Wallsend is the only station in the United Kingdom which has signage in Latin. This is a nod to the station’s location, near to the Segedunum Roman Fort at the end of Hadrian’s Wall.
