Staintondale railway station was a railway station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway. It opened on 16 July 1885, and served the hamlet of Staintondale in North Yorkshire, England. Staintondale railway station was 8 miles north of Scarborough and had a small goods yard, containing a camping coach, and was listed in 1956 as being able to handle general goods, livestock, horse boxes and prize cattle vans but there was no permanent crane. It closed on 8 March 1965. At various times during the station's history it was known as Stainton Dale (as two separate words).
