Trains to Adwick - Station Details and further Information on Adwick Train Services
Adwick train station serves the communities of Adwick-le-Street and Carcroft, in the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. Located on the line linking Leeds to Doncaster via Wakefield, immediately south-east of the point where it passes beneath Church Lane, the present station is the second to serve Adwick: the first, the main building of which still stands, lay on the other side of the present road bridge.
Within reach of the A1 Junctions 37 and 38 and just off the A638, Adwick station provides a park and ride for Doncaster and a commuting station for Wakefield and Leeds. The station has ample free parking and an on-site ticket office.
Northern Rail run rail services to Doncaster twice-hourly and to Leeds & Sheffield every hour. Trains to and from Sheffield terminate here, with the DMU operating them running empty to nearby Skellow Junction to reverse. The Sheffield service only runs during Monday to Saturday daytimes - during the evenings (hourly) and on Sundays (two-hourly) the station is served only by the Doncaster to Leeds stopping trains.
Unlike Bentley railway station, Adwick possesses a footbridge and a road bridge allowing traffic and pedestrians to pass unhindered from parking to platform 2. People living in the northern end of Bentley have been known to use Adwick instead of their own station due to the better accessibility. |
