Alfreton railway station serves the town of Alfreton in Derbyshire on the Erewash Valley Line.
During the 1980s, British Rail renamed the station Alfreton and Mansfield Parkway, as the nearby town of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire did not have a railway station of its own (in fact, it was the largest town in Britain without one). Following the reopening of the Robin Hood Line in 1993, Mansfield station reopened, and Alfreton station regained its original name.
