Loftus, previously "Lofthouse", was a railway station on the Whitby Redcar and Middlesbrough Union Railway. It was opened on 1st April 1875, and served the town of Loftus. It closed to passenger traffic in April 1960 and goods traffic later in the decade; the tracks through the station were lifted in 1964.

Though a single track was re-instated in the 1970s to allow freight trains to reach Boulby Mine, the station remains closed.
