Penistone railway station serves the town of Penistone, in the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England. The current station, at the junction of the Woodhead Line and Penistone Line, opened in 1874; it replaced a station solely on the Woodhead Line, dating from the line's opening by the Sheffield, Ashton-Under-Lyne and Manchester Railway in 1845.
The station only serves the Penistone Line currently. The line connects Huddersfield with Sheffield, via Barnsley, with an hourly train in each direction. Services are provided by Northern Trains.
