Title
Grassington Station - DNT00198
Description
Known as Grassington & Threshfield Station it was the terminus of the Yorkshire Dales Railway and opened with the line from Embsay Junction on the MR’s Ilkley Skipton Line in 1902; it was operated throughout by the MR. Regular passenger services were withdrawn in 1930 but excursion and goods trains continued until 1969 when the line beyond Swinden Quarry to Grassington was closed; the rails lifted and the station demolished to subsequently make way for a housing estate. The line remains open to Swinden Quarry for mineral traffic.
