Whittingham is a closed station on the Main North railway line in New South Wales.
It opened on 6 September 1869 as Falkner's Platform. It was upgraded from a platform to a station and renamed Whittingham in February 1877, at which time a ticket office and waiting room was built and stationmaster appointed.[1][2] It was for many years the railway access point for the Singleton Army Camp.[3] From 1921 to 1931, it was also an access point for the Singleton Racing Club's short-lived Whittingham Racecourse, which was adjacent to the station.[4][5] A minor derailment occurred at the station in 1945 when a shunting engine went through the points.[6] It closed at an unknown date and the station was demolished.
Coal
A junction was built at Whittingham in the 1970s for a coal branch to a coal mine at Mount Thorley and later for other mines.
