Thornton-in-Craven railway station was a railway station that served the small village of Thornton-in-Craven in North Yorkshire (formerly the West Riding of Yorkshire), England. It was built by the Leeds and Bradford Extension Railway.

Situated on the edge of the village, the station closed in 1970, along with the railway. The former station house is now privately owned, and the trackbed is used as a footpath and bridleway and has a parking area for the nearby cricket ground.
