Attercliffe Road railway station

Attercliffe Road railway station was a railway station in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. The station served the communities of Attercliffe, Burngreave and workers in the Don Valley and was situated on the Midland Main Line near Attercliffe Road in Attercliffe, lying between Sheffield Midland station and Brightside railway station.

The station was opened at the same time as the main line from Chesterfield was opened and had 2 platforms. The station was positioned above Effingham Street, although access was from a gated path from Leveson Street; an underpass led to an inclining bridge onto the Down platforms.

By the 1980s only certain morning and evening peak trains called at the station, as stopping trains exacerbated capacity problems in the major bottleneck north of Sheffield Midland. By the early 1990s this lack of trains had caused the station's patronage to dwindle to a level where closure was easily justified, again with line capacity constraints being quoted as the reason.

Little is left of the station but the platforms which can be seen from moving trains. The underpass is blocked by overgrown foliage although the gated entrance can still be seen from Leveson Street just by the bridge over the River Don.
