Rye Railway Station is a Grade II listed building located in East Sussex, England. It serves as a key station on the Marshlink line, connecting Hastings to Ashford International. The station, which opened in 1851, features two platforms and is managed by Southern. It provides a passing loop between two single-track sections, enhancing its strategic importance on this line.

The station building, designed by William Tress in an Italianate style, was constructed in 1847 and is noted for its architectural significance. Additionally, the station’s signal box, built in 1894, is also Grade II listed and is one of the few remaining of its type in good condition.

Rye Railway Station remains a vital transport hub despite recommendations for its closure in the 1963 Beeching Report, largely due to the area’s limited road connectivity. Today, it continues to facilitate regular services operated by Southern, connecting passengers to destinations such as Eastbourne and Ashford International. The station also supports local bus routes, linking it to broader regional transport networks.
