Buxton (Midland) railway station served the town of Buxton, Derbyshire, England between 1863 and 1967.
The station was opened by the Midland Railway (MR) on 1 June 1863. It was adjacent to, and to the south-east of, the Buxton railway station of the Stockport, Disley and Whaley Bridge Railway, which opened two weeks later. The two stations had similar end walls incorporating a large fan-shaped window.
The station was the terminus of the MR route from Derby. This route had opened as far as on 4 June 1849; and was continued to Buxton in 1863. The station was 164miles from .
The station closed on 6 March 1967. Most of the station was subsequently demolished and the land used for a ring road. Part of the site including the trackbed of the tracks outside the station were occupied by the Buxton Steam Centre of the Peak Rail Heritage Railway in the 1970s who relaid track with ambitions to reopen the line towards Millers Dale. This plan failed and they moved their entire operations and stock to the section between Matlock, Darley Dale and Rowsley where they have successfully reopened the railway. In June 2019 Peak Rail announced that they hoped to recommence work on the Buxton site during the summer of 2019.[1]
