Dalston railway station (Cumbria)

It became an unstaffed halt in 1967, but has kept its period stone waiting shelter on the northbound platform, lattice footbridge[1] and main buildings on the opposite side (the latter are in private commercial use).

Two crossovers operated from ground frames located at the station are used for shunting purposes when trains require access to the terminal sidings.

[2] Step-free access is available to both platforms and train running information is provided by telephone and timetable posters.

Digital information screens and a ticket machine are also being installed by Northern in 2019 as part of a rolling station improvement plan in the area.

Following the May 2021 timetable change, the station is served by an hourly service between Carlisle and Barrow-in-Furness, with some trains continuing to Lancaster.
