Wanborough railway station is in Flexford, Surrey, England. It serves the villages of Normandy to the north and Wanborough to the south. South West Trains operates the station and most of the trains that serve it. Great Western Railway also provides a limited service. The station is on the Ascot to Guildford line and the North Downs Line.

South West Trains runs trains every 30 minutes Monday to Saturday, and every 60 minutes on Sundays between Ascot and Guildford via Aldershot.

A few of Great Western Railways's trains between Reading and Redhill call at Wanborough. On Mondays-Fridays as of 2016 these are:

four trains per day to Redhill (one early morning, two late afternoon and one late night); five trains per day to Reading (four morning and one late evening)

On Saturdays there is one very late evening train to Gatwick Airport on Saturdays, and two (one early morning and one evening) to Reading. No Great Western Railway services call at Wanborough on Sundays.

The London and South Western Railway opened the station in 1891. British Railways closed the station's signal box in 1966, on the day that it commissioned the then-new signal box at Ash Crossing. Ash Crossing signal box has itself since been decommissioned and demolished. BR made Wanborough unstaffed in 1987. The station is 34 miles 29 chains (55.3 km) from Waterloo (measured via Worplesdon and milepost 30 14 at Guildford), and has two platforms, which can each accommodate a four-coach train.
