Norwood railway station was a railway station on the Crookwell railway line, Australia. The station opened in 1902 with the opening of the line, and consisted of a 30-metre (100 ft) platform on the down side of the line with a loop siding on the up side.[1] The siding was removed in 1941 and the station closed in 1943 and was subsequently demolished.[2] The line through Norwood closed to goods traffic in 1984.
