Lincoln St. Marks is a closed railway station on the Nottingham to Lincoln Line.
In 1985 the station closed to make way for the construction of the St. Marks Shopping Centre. Before closure it had been necessary to lay a new 80 metre length of track to the west to allow services from Newark to reach Lincoln Central. The grand ionic portico that was once the entrance has been preserved and, as of January 2007, is home to Lakeland Limited as part of the commercial development of the site. A mock signalbox has also been erected in the car park on which has been affixed an original sign from the station.
