Hope railway station serves the villages of Hope and Brough in the Derbyshire Peak District of England, 14+3⁄4 miles (23.7 km) west of Sheffield.
The station lies between the two villages, Hope and Brough, around 0.6 miles (1 km) east of Hope, and also serves Bradwell and Castleton; the latter being a notable tourist spot, famous for its caverns and the gemstone called Blue John.
Just west of Hope, the line passes between Win Hill (1,523 feet (464 m)) and Lose Hill (1,563 feet (476 m)). Also, a short distance to the west, is Earle's Sidings; this is the exchange yard for the privately owned and operated 2 miles (3.2 km) long branch line to the Hope Cement factory and quarry sited south of Hope village.
