Brading railway station is a railway station serving Brading on the Isle of Wight. It is located on the Island Line from Ryde to Shanklin.

Brading was the junction between the Ryde Pier Head-Shanklin-Ventnor mainline and the Brading-Bembridge branch line, until the branch line closed in 1953.

In August 2007 Brading Town Council announced a plan to revamp the exterior of the station buildings and former signal box [1].
