Forncett railway station was a railway station in Forncett, South Norfolk. It was opened in 1849 when the Great Eastern Main Line was constructed from London to Norwich. It was closed during the Beeching Axe, as a faster service between the cities was considered sufficient reason to close a number of intermediate stations in Norfolk.
