Crowle North railway station, officially known as Crowle railway station, was a station in Crowle, Lincolnshire on the Axholme Joint Railway which is now closed.[1] The North designation was used to avoid confusion with Crowle railway station on a neighbouring line.
The station was opened on 10 August 1903.[2] Originally it was the terminus of the line from Goole, until the section onward to Haxey Junction was opened for goods on 14 November 1904, and to passengers on 2 January 1905.[3] The station closed with the end of passenger services on the line on 17 July 1933.[2][4]
