Pickhill railway station served the village of Pickhill in North Yorkshire, England, on the Leeds–Northallerton Railway. It opened in March 1875, built by the North Eastern Railway. The station was on the east side of the junction of Cross Lane and a minor road. It started with one low platform, and a second platform was added in 1901 when the line was doubled. There were no goods facilities, but a siding to the north served a gravel quarry. The station closed completely on 14 September 1959. The siding remained in use until 11 November 1963.
