Naburn
The much modified former station building at Naburn once stood alongside the East Coast Main Line, but nowadays serves as a hostel, with the trackbed now part of a long distance walking and cycling route. The 11 mile section of the ECML between Chaloner's Whin Junction and Selby was abandoned in 1983 with the introduction of a new route to the west, avoiding the subsidence problems of the Selby coalfield as well as the bottlenecks caused by the swing bridges at Naburn and Selby. See image 21220. View platform side looking south east in September 2008.
