Arthington railway station served the village of Arthington in the English county of West Yorkshire, near the North Yorkshire town of Harrogate.

History

Opened by the Leeds Northern Railway, as part of the North Eastern Railway it was absorbed into the London and North Eastern Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The line then passed on to the Eastern Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, closing under that management.

The site today

Little now remains on site and the two sides of the railway triangle that lay to the north of the station have been dismantled. Trains still pass the eastern part of the triangle on the Harrogate Line.
