Yeoveney Halt was a railway station of a minimalist nature on the Staines & West Drayton Railway (which became part of the Great Western Railway in 1900). It was opened in June 1887 as Runnymede Range Halt on a restricted basis (as a private station for a nearby rifle range), gaining a regular public service from 1 March 1892. It was renamed Runymede Halt on 9 July 1934, and again renamed Yeoveney Halt in 4 November 1935, to deter tourists who came seeking the place where Magna Carta was signed (which was some miles away by road).
