Norton Junction (West Midlands) was a railway junction and goods yard that served multiple coal lines and mineral lines to and from the local collieries and other industrial-related businesses, most notably Pelsall Steelworks and Walsall Wood Colliery.

Closure

Traffic into the junction began to decline in the 1950s following closure of many local mines and collieries. The lines to Ryders Hayes, Brownhills and Hednesford closed in 1964 along with the entire junction.

Present day

The entire site has been built on by housing and roads but some of the trackbed can still be followed as far as Pelsall and Brownhills.
