===Previous stations=== The first station to be named after the Meadowhall area, [[Meadowhall & Wincobank railway station|Meadowhall & Wincobank]], was opened in 1868 by the [[South Yorkshire Railway]] on the Blackburn Valley Line from [[Sheffield Victoria railway station|Sheffield Victoria]] to [[Barnsley Interchange|Barnsley]]. Meadowhall & Wincobank station closed in 1953 and the track was eventually lifted and converted into a [[cycle path]] in 1987, although the station building survives in good condition. Upon opening in 1990, Meadowhall Interchange effectively replaced [[Brightside railway station|Brightside station]], located around {{convert|1|mi|km|1}} further down the line towards [[Sheffield railway station|Sheffield]]. However, limited services continued to serve Brightside for several years after the opening of Meadowhall Interchange, with Brightside station finally closing in 1995. {{s-rail-start|noclear=yes}} {{Historical Rail Insert}} {{rail line |next={{stnlnk|Rotherham Central}}<br /><small>Line and station open</small> |previous={{stnlnk|Brightside}}<br /><small>Line open, station closed</small> |route=[[Regional Railways]] |col={{RR colour}} }} {{s-end}}
