Bakewell railway station served the town of Bakewell, in Derbyshire, England, between 1862 and 1967. It was built by the Midland Railway on its extension of the Manchester, Buxton, Matlock and Midland Junction Railway line from Rowsley to Buxton Midland. The Peak Rail heritage railway intends to reopen the station to trains by extending its existing Matlock to Rowsley South line by 4 miles (6.4 km) through Rowsley to Bakewell.
