Langho railway station serves the village of Langho in the Ribble Valley in Lancashire, England. The station is 5 14 miles (8.4 km) north of Blackburn.

It is one of four railway stations along the Ribble line from Blackburn to Clitheroe reopened in the mid 1990s by Lancashire County Council, having been closed by the British Railways Board as an economy measure in 1956, six years before the local passenger service over the line ceased. The station has maintained transport links with existing bus services and has its services provided by Northern.

Services

There is generally an hourly service daily northbound to Clitheroe and southbound to Blackburn and Manchester Victoria with extra trains during peak hours.

On Sundays in the summer, one or two trains operate from Preston or Blackpool North along the Ribble Valley Line via Clitheroe to Hellifield railway station and onwards towards Carlisle.
