Winson Green railway station was a railway station in England, built by the London and North Western Railway on their Stour Valley Line in 1876. It served the Winson Green area of Birmingham.

The station closed in 1957, although the Rugby-Birmingham-Stafford Line loop from the West Coast Main Line still runs through the site of the station today.

There is some evidence of the station on the ground today, as the two tracks running currently through the site of the station split at the location of an island platform.
