Askrigg railway station

It was located 660 yards (600 m) west of the village, in the neighbouring civil parish of Low Abbotside.

[1][2][3] The main running line was the northernmost track which had the platform adjoining; the southern track was not furnished with a platform, and although two goods trains, or a goods and a passenger train could pass at the station, it was unsuited to two passenger workings passing there.

[5] The line then passed on to the North Eastern Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948.

The nearest track on the line runs from Redmire eastward, providing rail access for military traffic to local training areas.

The Wensleydale Railway is a heritage line which operates from Redmire to Northallerton West
