Askrigg railway station is a disused railway station in North Yorkshire, England, and served the village of Askrigg. It was located 660 yards (600 m) west of the village, in the neighbouring civil parish of Low Abbotside. It was part of the Wensleydale Railway until it closed. The Wensleydale Railway Association aims to rebuild the railway from Northallerton to Garsdale, with an eventual aim of reopening the intermediate stations.
