Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road

Shipley railway station serves the market town of Shipley in West Yorkshire, England. It is 2+34 miles (4.4 km) north of Bradford Forster Square and 10+34 miles (17.3 km) north-west of Leeds.

Train services are mostly commuter services between Leeds and Bradford, the Airedale line (Leeds and Bradford to Skipton, via Keighley), and the Wharfedale Line (Leeds and Bradford to Ilkley). There are also a few main-line London North Eastern Railway services between Bradford or Skipton and London, and it also lies on the line from Leeds to Glasgow via the Settle-Carlisle Railway.

Shipley is one of only two surviving "triangular" stations in the UK: it has platforms on all three sides of a triangle of lines.
