Beckfoot railway station is a railway station on the 15" gauge Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway in Cumbria. The station is situated within walking distance of the Eastern terminus of the line, Dalegarth. The station is unstaffed at all times, and is only 20 metres long. The station can be accessed either by steps or from, the road which crosses the line, East of the station. It differs from the other stations in that passengers will only be picked up here on Down journeys (Dalegarth-Ravenglass) and will only be set down here on Up journeys (Ravenglass-Dalegarth). This is traditionally because the gradient up into the wood here is severe and in bad conditions, it can be difficult to get a train moving on slippery rails in Autumn and Winter. There is a level crossing at the eastern end of the platform, marking the beginning of the private road and public footpath from Beckfoot to Dalegarth cottages which runs for half a mile eastwards.
