Chapeltown railway station, originally known as Chapeltown South, is in Chapeltown, a district of Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. The station is 7¼ miles (11 km) north of Sheffield on the Hallam and Penistone Lines.
The present station was the first to be opened under the governance of the South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive in the late 1970's, the original station, some 400 yards nearer to Barnsley, closing at that time. The platforms, shown in the adjoining photograph looking towards the new station just visible in the distance, were retained, the Barnsley bound platform being used as a walkway to connect the original access to the new station.
[edit] Services
Services currently run twice an hour, Monday to Saturday to Sheffield, hourly Sundays and hourly to Huddersfield on the Penistone Line and Leeds on the Hallam Line respectively (two-hourly Sundays).
