Crowle railway station serves the town of Crowle in North Lincolnshire, England. Stopping services from Sheffield to Scunthorpe call at the station. Most services are provided by Northern Rail, who operate the station. Occasional services by TransPennine Express also call at this station.

The station has very limited facilities. There is a shelter on each platform. Platform 2 is accessible only by crossing the track at the west end of the platform. The signal box has now been knocked down and levelled off.

Service

Trains call here hourly in each direction between approximately 06:00 and 23:15 Monday to Friday, and 06:00 to 22:15 Saturday, the service being provided by the hourly local trains between Sheffield and Scunthorpe.

From 11 February 2013 no train services were operating from the station due to a major landslip that blocked the line near Hatfield and Stainforth. A replacement bus service was in operation, serving all intermediate stations east of Doncaster; the line wasn't expected to reopen until the end of June 2013 due the scale of repair work required - this date was subsequently pushed back until July.[1][2] The line finally reopened on 8 July 2013.

There is no service on Sundays.
