Kings Heath railway station was a railway station in Kings Heath, Birmingham, England.
The station was built on the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway's Camp Hill Line, and operated between 1840 and 1941. On opening, it was known as Moseley Station. On the opening of Moseley station proper in 1867, the station was renamed. The station finally closed to passengers in 1941 due to the Second World War, although it was used for freight into the 1960s. It was demolished at some point thereafter.
Proposals have been made to re-open the station, along with others on the Camp Hill Line, for passenger use.
