Whitedale Station Former station house, on the former Hull and Hornsea Railway, with both platforms still intact. Even when operational, it's hard to see how a station could have been justified in such an isolated spot, until one notices that Rise Hall is not far away, whose residents were apparently its principal customers.

It opened on 28 March 1864 and closed following the Beeching Report on 19 October 1964.
