Newton Road railway station was a station of the London and North Western Railway in Sandwell between West Bromwich and Great Barr, England. It lay between Hamstead and the later Tame Bridge Parkway stations on what is now known as the Chase Line.

As one of the original Grand Junction Railway stations, Newton Road opened in 1837,^[1]{{rp|17}} (at {{gbmapping|SP025935}}; {{Coord|52.5399|-1.9639|region:GB_type:railwaystation|name=Newton Road railway station (1st)}}) but under subsequent LNWR control, it was deemed that a more suitable site should be found, and the station was shifted a short distance north-west along the track in 1863 to the junction of Ray Hall Lane with the railway (at {{gbmapping|SP022939}}; {{Coord|52.5439|-1.9679|region:GB_type:railwaystation|name=Newton Road railway station (2nd)}}; a location now buried under the M5 motorway).

However, this move yielded few dividends in passenger numbers, so the station was shifted back near its original position on Newton Road in 1902, where it stayed until final closure in 1945.
