Crakehall railway station was a railway station that served the village of Crakehall, North Yorkshire, England.

History

Opened by the Bedale and Leyburn Railway, it became part of the London and North Eastern Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The line then passed on to the North Eastern Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. It was then closed by British Railways in April 1954.[1]

The site today

Track still passes through the station site, providing rail access for the Wensleydale Railway which operates west from Leeming Bar. The crossing is now manually operated by a crossing keeper when the heritage line is operating. The station building remains intact and is used as a private house.[2]
