Roade was a railway station serving the Northamptonshire village of the same name on the West Coast Main Line.

[5] Roade, by then a junction for fast trains north as well as services through Northampton, saw its facilities considerably enlarged to include three platforms.

Although the LNWR had refused a request to allow passenger services on the spur, the line did run into a bay platform at Roade.

The spur became less important with the formation of the Stratford-upon-Avon and Midland Junction Railway and the strengthening of the connection with the main line at Blisworth.

[9] Roade station was reprieved from closure in 1959 due to the efforts of local MP Sir Frank Markham, remaining open until 1964.
