Description

Sheffield Victoria var hovedbanegården i Sheffield, Yorkshire, England, på Great Central Railway, mellem Chesterfield og Penistone.

Ingeniørarbejdet blev udført af Joseph Locke, og Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne og Manchester Railway, der forbinder Manchester og Sheffield, åbnede i 1845. Oprindeligt sluttede denne linje ved Bridgehouses station, som lå ca. 0,7 miles vest for den fremtidige Victoria station. I 1847 fusionerede Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne og Manchester Railway med to andre jernbaneselskaber for at danne Manchester, Sheffield og Lincolnshire Railway. Stationen ved Bridgehouses var blevet for lille, så en udvidelse og ny station blev planlagt. John Fowler, som senere blev berømt for at co-designe Forth Railway Bridge i Skotland, blev ansat til at konstruere udvidelsen og stationen. Fowlers design omfattede en viadukt over Wicker, der var 40 fod høj, 750 yards lang og to ø-platforme 1.000 ft lange. Udvidelsen blev færdiggjort i 1847–1848, og den nye Victoria station åbnede den 15. september 1851.
