Sheffield Midland station

(Redirected from Sheffield Station)

Sheffield Midland Station, now called simply Sheffield, is the railway station in central Sheffield, England. Services from Sheffield station are provided by Midland Mainline, Virgin Trains, Central Trains, Northern Rail and TransPennine Express. The station is connected to Sheffield's tram network, and is linked to the city's bus station by a short covered walkway.

The Midland Station was the fifth and last station to be built in Sheffield's city centre. It was built by the Midland Railway to serve their new Sheffield extension Midland Main Line, which opened in 1870. This new line replaced the previous route to London that ran from Sheffield Wicker Station via Rotherham (Masborough). The station was given two extra platforms and a new frontage in 1905.
