The former Banbury and Cheltenham Direct Railway, part of the Great Western Railway, was completed in 1881. The line had a small railway station, Milton Halt, on the northern edge of the village near Manor Farm. British Rail closed the halt in 1951 and closed the railway to freight traffic in 1964. The track was removed in 1965.
