Waimate
- A town in Canterbury
- Situated just inland from the eastern coast of the South Island.
- From 1877 until 1966, Waimate was served by the Waimate Branch
- For roughly seventy years ending in 1953, the line ran beyond Waimate to Waihao Downs.
- When the branch line was closed on 31 March 1966, Waimate became the first major town in New Zealand to lose its railway connection.
