The station is built within the Elsecar Heritage Centre, the former National Coal Board workshops at Elsecar.[2] The station officially opened to passengers on 5 April 1996, when the inaugural train ran to Hemingfield.[3] The line runs from Rockingham station to Hemingfield Basin, alongside the Elsecar Branch of the Dearne and Dove Canal but it was intended to extend the line to Cortonwood with halts at Hemingfield and Cortonwood during 2013.[4] However, by February 2017 the project was ongoing but still incomplete.[5] The station was called Rockingham by Barnsley Council (who re-opened the railway) after a second name of the Earl Fitzwilliam family, the original builders of the line in the 1850s.[2] See also
