Acklington is a railway station on the East Coast Main Line, which runs between London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley.

The station, situated 28 miles 43 chains (28.5 mi; 45.9 km) north of Newcastle, serves the small village of Acklington in Northumberland, England.

[3] Electrification of the ECML and a rolling stock shortage led to the timetable being cut to the present residual level in 1991.

The station is unstaffed (so tickets must be purchased in advance or on the train) and only has basic amenities - a sizeable stone shelter and payphone on the southbound platform and a cycle rack on the northbound side.

The station is currently served by three trains per day (one in the morning and two in the evening) northbound to Chathill and southbound to Newcastle via Morpeth.
