Monk Fryston railway station was a railway station serving the village of Monk Fryston in North Yorkshire,[note 1] England. Previously, Milford Junction and Old Junction (Gascoigne Wood) served as an interchange between the Leeds and Selby and the York and North Midland Lines, however when they closed in the early 1900s, Monk Fryston was opened to cover for this loss of interchange. Though the station had four tracks through it, it only ever had two platforms. The station closed to passengers in 1959, and then completely in 1964.
