South Willingham and Hainton railway station was a station in South Willingham, Lincolnshire.
The Great Northern Railway planned and built a branch line from Bardney to Louth in stages, the middle stage between Wragby and Donington on Bain on 27 September 1875.
The Louth and Lincoln Railway, which connected Louth with Bardney was authorised on 6 August 1866 and opened on 1 December 1876. It was absorbed by the Great Northern Railway in 1882. One of the stations opened with the line was South Willingham; one month later, on 1 January 1877 it was renamed South Willingham and Hainton.
Passenger services ended on 5 November 1951, goods traffic on 1 December 1958.
