Luffenham railway station is a former station serving the villages of North and South Luffenham, Rutland. [British Railways Atlas.1947. p.16] The station was situated adjacent to a level crossing on the North Luffenham to Duddington road. It was about 0.8 miles from each village by road, although only 0.5 miles from South Luffenham by the public footpath that was soon established (and which still exists). It soon became the junction for the London and North Western Railway's Seaton branch, although most trains worked through to Stamford.
