If visiting Whitby or the area..take a trip on a steam train and visit here…read more A station people recognise without often knowing why. Goathland railway station is a typical countryside station, almost unchanged since its construction in 1865. The station has been restored to represent an NER country station post World War 1 circa 1922. The station is popular with tourists due to its appearances in Yorkshire TV's Heartbeat and the first of the Harry Potter films. The station has a newly refurbished Tea Room which is inside a Goods Warehouse. The station also has a traditional camping coach, which is let for holidays. This station (originally known as Goathland Mill) is on the deviation line opened by the North Eastern Railway in 1865 to avoid the cable-worked Beck Hole Incline, which was part of the original 1836 Whitby and Pickering Railway route. Known as Aidensfield in Heartbeat and Hogsmeade railway station in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, this English village is a popular tourist destination.the line was filmed for Harry's journey. The engine used was originally GWR Hall Class 4-6-0 No.5972 Olton Hall. Built at Swindon in 1937, o.5972.Olton Hall was one of a class of 330 versatile mixed traffic locomotives, designed by Charles Collett for the Great Western Railway. No.5972 is now set to find new fame as the Hogwarts Express locomotive in the Warner Brothers' film of Harry Potter stories Renamed Hogwarts Castle and repainted into fictitious Hogwarts Railways bright red livery, No. 5972 appeared in the first session of filming at Goathland, on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. The original Goathland station was located at the head of the incline, where there are still some Y&NM cottages, together with a single W&P one.The station buildings were to the design of the NER's architect Thomas Prosser and were very similar to those being built concurrently (by the same contractor, Thomas Nelson) on the Castleton to Grosmont line. The collection of buildings is very little altered since they were built - the last recorded change (apart from NYMR restoration) being in 1908. Goathland village is perhaps much better known as Aidensfield in Yorkshire TV's Heartbeat than its real name.

Harrogate Train Station is the main railway station serving the town of Harrogate in North…read moreYorkshire, it is a rather small station, with three platforms, although they only tend to use two of them. Pretty much all services go into Leeds (29 km north of here), so odds are, you may need to change trains there, depending on where you are going, as I had to, to get back to Manchester. The station is served by both LNER and Northern Rail, with the latter managing the station and providing the majority of the services that use the station. It's a typical old-school station, lots of steps and walking across the footbridge between platforms, there are lifts though if you have access needs or a heavy suitcase. There isn't much in terms of food/drink inside the station, I did notice a Cafe, next to the Ticket Hall, but this was closed on both my journeys to and from the station - being right in the town centre, it is easy enough to hop across to get a snack / bite to eat there. There is a small waiting area on the platforms, with a couple of places to sit down under shelter. Access to other modes of transportation to continue your journey is also good, with a taxi rank outside the station, and an adjacent bus station. The station is staffed, and the staff seem friendly enough. PRO TIP: If you're picking up or returning a parcel, there is an Amazon Locker, and an InPost Locker, right outside the station which can be handy. 3*

I was looking forward to a Pullman Experience on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. The excitement,…read moreeven at my age, of seeing the steam train standing in the station. The noise, the smells took me back 60 years. The Pullman carriages tables were laid beautifully. Arriving at our carriage we were greeted by the young lady who guided us to our table. Having removed a dirty napkin from my seat we sat down. Drinks were ordered from a very pleasant young man which arrived promptly. Sitting back, the train began its journey to Pickering. The smoke billowing across the countryside. Other than the silver service by the young attendants, which was exemplary, the positives stop here. The food was the worst that I have eaten, even in lesser carveries around the country. Stodgy vegetables, inedible roast potatoes. I won't go on. I don't need to. I realise that the NYMR is a charitable concern but even charities need to give 'value for money'. Yes I would return for the train experience but would totally avoid their Pullman Experience.

After the hotel nearby burned down it became something of a backwater, losing its ticket office, waiting room and roof (not in that order). After one of those fires that seem to happen to listed buildings in stockton whenever someone is interested in developing them, most of the main station building has turned into an old folk's home (they can't hear the goods trains rattling through all night.) There is a direct train from London to Eaglescliffe, the Grand Central service, that could have chosen to stop at Stockton station, but I see why they didn't. It's a little bit scary. You are on your own, unlike at Thornaby, and it's a little bit too big to be on your own in. Even though, thinking of it, the staff at the nursing home would probably hear your cries for help were anyone to try anything. This is not the stockton station referred to on old five pound notes, the first passenger rail station of stockton and darlington railway fame (1821 Manchester, remember that, 1821) no, this is a branch line which nevertheless branches all the way down to London (direct). The historic stockton railway buildings are a homeless shelter next to a new bypass.
