The station was situated on the West Coast Main Line and was opened on 17 December 1846, when the section of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway was opened between Oxenholme and Carlisle.
Shap station passed into the hands of the London and North Western Railway very soon after opening and that company operated it until amalgamation into the London Midland and Scottish Railway in 1923. British Railways took over operation on 1 January 1948, but closed the station to passengers on 1 July 1968.
