Nottingham London Road railway station was a complex of two railway stations which served the city of Nottingham in England. The low level station was opened by the Great Northern Railway on London Road in 1857, and closed to passengers on 22 May 1944. The site continued to be used for goods, and later parcels, until its complete closure to rail traffic in 1988. The high level station was opened in 1900 in order to serve trains coming to and from the then-new Nottingham Victoria railway station. It was closed in 1967 and subsequently demolished in 2006.
