Hainton Street Halt was a railway halt on the East Lincolnshire Railway which served the Welholme Road area of Grimsby in Lincolnshire between 1905 and 1961. The station was opened as part of a new motor train service between and . The station briefly closed in 1939 as a Second World War economy measure, but reopened in 1940. The line through Hainton Street remained open for freight until December 1980. The trackbed was later reused by Humberside County Council to construct the A16 Peaks Parkway which now runs through the site. Building of the road put an end to the aspirations of the Great Northern and East Lincolnshire Railway plc (now the Lincolnshire Wolds Railway) to reopen the line as a heritage railway.
==History==
The station was opened on 11 December 1905 to coincide with the introduction of a motor train service on the East Lincolnshire Railway by the Great Northern Railway. It was one of six halts opened at this time; each had short low platforms reached from the steam railcars by a set of specially-fitted steps. Hainton Street Halt consisted of two low facing halt platforms to the south of a level crossing over Welholme Road within the Grimsby town boundary. It took its named after Hainton Road, now the B1213 Hainton Avenue, which ran parallel to the east side of the line. A timber waiting shelter was provided on the up platform, adjacent to a signal box which controlled the level crossing.〔 A crossing keeper's cottage lay just beyond.
To the north of the station lay Grimsby Goods Junction ( from ), at which point the East Lincolnshire Line ended, forking left into Grimsby Town station via Garden Street Junction and right to Pasture Street signal box and the Cleethorpes line.
The station, at which trains only called upon request, closed as a temporary wartime measure on 4 December 1939, but was reopened on 1 March 1940. Final closure came on 11 September 1961 with the withdrawal of the railmotor service.
