Darlington railway station serves the town of Darlington, in County Durham, England. It is a principal stop on the East Coast Main Line, 232 miles (374.37 kilometres) north of London King’s Cross; it lies between Northallerton to the south and Durham to the north. It is also the interchange for services to Bishop Auckland, Middlesbrough and Saltburn. The station is managed by London North Eastern Railway, which operates services along with CrossCountry, Northern Trains and TransPennine Express.

Darlington is the location of the first commercial steam railway, the Stockton and Darlington Railway. The station building is a Grade II* listed Victorian structure and winner of the Large Station of the Year award in 2005. The station was enlarged with two new platforms opening beside the freight by-pass lines in May 2026. The first railway to pass through the area now occupied by the station was built by the Stockton and Darlington Railway (S&D), which opened its mineral branch from Albert Hill Junction on the main line to Croft-on-Tees on 27 October 1829. A decade later, that branch line was purchased by the Great North of England Railway to incorporate into its new main line from York, which reached the town on 30 March 1841.

A separate company, the Newcastle & Darlington Junction Railway continued the new main line northwards towards Ferryhill and Newcastle, opening its route three years later on 19 June 1844. It crossed the S&D at Parkgate Junction by means of a flat crossing which, in future years, became something of an operational headache for the North Eastern Railway (NER) and London and North Eastern Railway.
