Helmdon was a railway station serving the village of Helmdon in Northamptonshire on the former Great Central main line (GCR). This was the last main line to be constructed from the north of England to London and opened in March 1899. The station was originally named Helmdon and was also known as Helmdon for Sulgrave.

From the station the line continued northwards on an embankment before crossing the valley on the nine arch Helmdon Viaduct over the River Tove. The viaduct remains, having seen its last train more than 40 years ago.
