Skellingthorpe railway station is a former railway station in Skellingthorpe, Lincolnshire. It was opened by the Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway in March 1897 and closed by British Railways in 1955

It was the only LD&ECR station in Lincolnshire, since to the east it joined the GNR line at Pyewipe Junction into Lincoln. It was one of the only two stations to have a level crossing, the other being Bolsover[2]
