Manors is a railway station on the East Coast Main Line, which runs between London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley.

When the East Coast Main Line was widened to four tracks in 1887, an additional two platforms were built.

In addition to the busy electric service to the coast, Manors was a terminus for trains to Morpeth, Blyth and Newbiggin.

[4] In LNER days, the bay platforms were used as standage for electric sets and for short workings to Benton.

[5] The station is unstaffed, and the only facilities are a shelter with a telephone, a bike rack and a ticket machine (card only).

The platforms are reached by a footbridge rather than by the original subway, so the station is not accessible for wheelchair or mobility-impaired users.

[6] In early 2015, the station received a new shelter, cycle racks, seats and a timetable information board, as requested by a small group of enthusiasts.
