Honley railway station serves the village of Honley in the Holme Valley of West Yorkshire, England. Honley station lies approximately from on the Penistone Line operated by Northern.The station was opened by the Huddersfield & Sheffield Junction Railway (a constituent company of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway) in 1850. The railway line through Honley has been single since 1989, with only one platform (the former northbound one) in use for both directions (the derelict southbound one is however still visible, as can be seen in the accompanying photograph).FacilitiesIn August 2013, plans were released to install electronic customer real-time information screens at the station. It was later revealed by Metro that they were to be installed in May/June 2015. These are now in use.

A customer help point and timetable posters are provided in addition to the CIS screens to offer train running information.
