The Ngawapurua railway station on the Wairarapa Line was located in the Tararua District of the Manawatū-Whanganui region in New Zealand’s North Island.

Ngāawapūrua means in English "the blocked up river" or could also possibly mean "the meeting of the waters"

The station opened on 11 December 1897 and closed on 29 May 1966.

Facilities

When originally opened Ngawapura station consisted of a 6th class station building & passenger platform on the main line with three loops in the goods yard, a 40 ft x 30 ft goods shed, loading bank, cattle yards & urinals. The back shunt to the cattle yards continued south to the river where ballast was collected for many years.

As roads in the area improved traffic at the station fell and it became one of several small stations on the line closed during the 1960s.
