Bolton Abbey Station

On the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway, just outside Skipton.
The station was opened in 1888 by the Midland Railway which was later incorporated into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (L.M.S). 
Bolton Abbey station has had a long Royal connection. It was the nearest station to the Duke of Devonshire's Bolton Hall which was often visited by royalty.
It closed along with the line in March 1965 and the buildings soon became derelict. Following the purchase of the site and associated trackbed by the railway trust in 1995, the station was restored to its 1888 condition. It was officially re-opened on 1 May 1998
