Knaresborough - Railway Station
The station is located at the northern side of the Nidd Viaduct off Station Road. Knaresborough is an historic market town, spa town and civil parish in the Borough of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it is located on the River Nidd, 4 miles (6.4 km) east from the centre of Harrogate
In 1865 the North Eastern Railway replaced the 1851 station with a design by Thomas Prosser. The station was rebuilt c.1890. The 1851 Water tower is still extant. The station signal box (built 1890) is somewhat unusual in that it was built onto the end of an adjoining row of terraced houses on Kirkgate
Beyond the platforms eastbound was a tunnel which separated the station from the goods yard (now a bus depot) and the line's major junction. The tunnel is still extant with both north and south portals are now listed structures.
The shot reminded me of a popular song from 1956 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgvQiBjVS-s
