Marsh Lane railway station was a railway station that operated to the east of central Leeds, England, from 22 September 1834 to 1958.
It had served as the terminus for the Leeds and Selby Railway services between Leeds and Selby and was the first main line to be built in Yorkshire and one of the first main line railways in England. For a number of years it acted as a terminus for railway routes from the east of the city prior to the construction in 1869 of the viaduct which now runs through the city centre.
The station was closed in 1958 in a decade which by 1967 saw the number of stations in Leeds city centre reduced to one (Leeds City railway station), following the closure of Leeds Central railway station and Holbeck railway station. Marsh Lane station was later demolished but as of 2007 its site remains derelict and unused.
