Haslingden railway station served the town of Haslingden in Rossendale, Lancashire. The station was built by the East Lancashire Railway (ELR) on their Bury to Accrington line and opened on 17 August 1848. The ELR was merged into the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway on 13 May 1859, this company operating it until 1923, when it became part of the London Midland and Scottish Railway. Owned by the London Midland Region of British Railways from 1948, it was closed by that body on 7 November 1960. The route through the station also closed on 5 December 1966 and the tracks were subsequently lifted.
