Denby Dale railway station
Denby Dale railway station serves the village of Denby Dale, in West Yorkshire, England and the surrounding area. It lies on the Penistone Line  south east of Huddersfield and is operated by Northern. Opened by the Huddersfield & Sheffield Junction Railway in 1850 (which subsequently became part of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway), it originally had two platforms but lost the northbound one when the Clayton West Junction to Penistone section was singled in 1969. The line from the south is carried above the village on an impressive 21-arch stone viaduct which is over  high (one of several such structures on the route). Facilities and ticketing

Station facilities 
The station has only a single platform. It is accessed by either a ramp from the car park or by a subway. The only remaining station buildings are in private industrial use, but there is a standard waiting shelter on the platform. Timetable information is provided on posters and passenger information displays, there are also automated announcements. No step-free access is available to the platform - the main entrance via the car park has a high kerb that can cause difficulties for wheelchair users, whilst the pedestrian subway at the south end has steps. The station is unstaffed, with a ticket machine, and passengers must buy their tickets online prior to travel or from the ticket machine. Passenger Transport Executive ticket validity
