Sandsfoot Castle Halt was a small railway station on the Portland Branch Railway between Weymouth and Portland in Dorset.

Station

Opened on 1 August 1932, it was part of a scheme that saw several halts to counter road competition. Services were provided by railmotors, carriages equipped with driving ends and their own small steam engine. The station closed with the branch in 1952.

Site today

The remains of the timber platform are located on the Rodwell Trail, a popular local walk.[1]
