Yorkshire Dales Railway Embsay station

Here the whole station looking east

 The waiting room and bridge sadly out of order when I visited.

A very LMS feel throughout. The link through to Bolton Abbey was built in the late 19th century at the request of the Duke of Devonshire who owned all the land around Bolton Abbey, this to facilitate easy access to his shooting friends who enjoyed the grouse and Pheasant shooting on the moors surrounding the line
