Scalby railway station was a railway station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway.

The station opened on 16 July 1885, and served the village of Scalby. It was situated immediately east of Scalby Viaduct and had a single platform, a goods bay, and another siding. The station closed to regular traffic on 2 March 1953, the station building was then converted into a camping cottage. Occasional trains still stopped for users of this facility until final closure in 1964. In 1974 the station was completely demolished, and a road called Chichester Close has been built on the site since. Some of the stonework has been reused in houses in this street.
