Abancourt (French pronunciation: [abɑ̃kuʁ] ⓘ) is a commune in the Oise department in the Hauts-de-France region of northern France.

The station is an intermediate stop on the TER Hauts-de-France Amiens to Rouen route[6] and the Le Tréport-Mers to Beauvais route[7] The river Bresle flows north-west from Abancourt along the Formerie plateau into the English Channel at Le Tréport.

This coastal river is around 68 to 72 kilometres long depending on which source is used[8] and crosses the Oise, Somme, and Seine-Maritime Departments.

On Abancourt's ancient Roman road lies a linden tree 6 metres in circumference, which was possibly the marker of a military border or a Celtic monument.

Supply trains from Le Havre and Rouen disgorged their content into vast warehouses in the Abancourt complex along 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) of track.

The warehouses contained enough non-perishable stores to last at least one month and dispatched twenty-two supply trains a day to the next distribution station.

In August 1916 a serious mutiny broke out in the prison, for which seven ring-leaders were prosecuted and at least two put to death on 29 October 1916: British Gunner Lewis, aged 30, shot at Rouen,[15] and New Zealand Private John (Jack) Braithwaite, 35 years old, shot at the prison.
