Ribblehead railway station is located at the southern end of the famous Ribblehead Viaduct in North Yorkshire, England. It is operated by Northern Rail who provide all passenger train services.
It was re-opened in 1986 with only one platform due to the northbound platform having been removed to build a branchline to a local quarry. A replacement second platform was opened in 1993.

Generally there is a train every two hours northbound to Carlisle and southbound to Leeds.
