[5] One non-passenger revenue service was the sidings for the Darlington Rolling Stock Company which provided wagon maintenance.
Connecting the main platforms was a footbridge, but passengers alighting from Darlington-bound trains from Richmond, had to cross the tracks at the level.
[10][11] Originally, services on the branch connected with Eryholme only and passengers transferred between trains at the junction station.
[12] The station probably saw its greatest number of passengers during World War II as it was the drop off point for servicemen arriving at the nearby RAF Croft.
Passing the site today passengers on the East Coast Main Line would be hard pressed to pinpoint the location of Eryholme, as apart from some remains of the branch platforms, all signs of the station have been demolished.
