That's -1 for me, I've just noticed that the 16:10 Pickering-Whitby is booked to stop, making it 5 trains bound for Whitby serving Sleigts. Oops.

I make it 5 trains in each direction. I'm a little perplexed on this one, I thought it would either be one of the lesser served Cumbrian Coast stations, like yourself, of on the Whitby branch. I must have missed something.

 

[Springs Branch]

I spun a coin between these two & got BYS, but you'd got in there first. So I'll choose the other .....
Nethertown ?

 

[dzug2]

Not sure about clue 4 - there was a passing loop there which implies a second platform in the past

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nethertown#/media/File:Nethertown_Railway_Station.jpg seems to have been taken from a disused platform

Ex-Carlisle: 11:02, 16:38, 17:58, 19:12
Ex-Barrow: 07:54, 11:11, 14:31, 18:45

according to the Northern on-line timetable. There appear to be errors in table 100.

 

[clagmonster]

I do apologise. I was looking at table 100. I did once see the NRT in the fiction section at WHSmith's.
