East Norton railway station served the village of East Norton, Leicestershire, England. The station was located approximately half a mile east of the village, on the north side of the road between Uppingham and Leicester, now part of the A47. It was situated on the Great Northern and London and North Western Joint Railway.

The station opened on 15 December 1879 and closed to passengers on 7 December 1953.

The station buildings have since been demolished, and the site has been landscaped, leaving no visible trace of the former railway infrastructure.
