Barbon railway station was located in Westmorland (now part of Cumbria), England, serving the town and locale of Barbon on the Ingleton Branch Line.

History

The Lancaster and Carlisle Railway built the Ingleton Branch Line from the existing Ingleton Station to Шаблон:Stnlnk.[1] By the time the branch was completed in 1861, the L&CR was operated by the London and North Western Railway (L&NWR).

After formal closure the line was still on occasions used for weekend excursions and to transport pupils to and from local boarding schools. Goods traffic continued until 1 October 1964. The line was maintained as a possible relief route until April 1967 when the tracks were lifted.[2]

The site is now covered by a housing scheme.
