The station is on the Calder Valley Line, operated by Northern since April 2016, from York and Leeds towards Manchester Victoria and Preston. The station is west of Halifax and west of Leeds. History The Manchester and Leeds Railway, authorised in 1836 for a line from Manchester to , was opened in stages; the second section, between Normanton and Hebden Bridge, opened on 5 October 1840.

The section between Hebden Bridge and Summit Tunnel opened on 31 December 1840, allowing trains to reach ; after Summit Tunnel opened on 1 March 1841, trains continued to Littleborough and Manchester. An 1841 timetable shows five Manchester to Leeds trains per day calling at Hebden Bridge (two on Sundays), all but one of which called at all stations; a similar service ran in the opposite direction. Trains began operating to Halifax and Bradford in 1852, and could run through to Leeds via this route from 1854. The current buildings date from 1893, construction having started in 1891. By this point there was a goods yard alongside the station. This closed in 1966 and the site is now the station car park. In 1997 the station was renovated, and signage in the original Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway style was installed. On 21 June 1912 a train derailed nearby, killing four people and injuring many others. The official inquiry found that the train was running too fast on the Charlestown Curve, a tight curve near the station. Facilities The station has a staffed ticket office, waiting rooms, toilets and a cafe. New lifts have been installed to make both platforms fully accessible (commissioned in March 2019), and Information screens were installed in 2012 as part of a programme to provide screens at 18 stations on the Calder Valley Line and elsewhere in West Yorkshire. Previously, passengers had to rely on automated public-address system announcements. Services The station is the only station on the Calder Valley Line where every service calls.
