Rockcliffe railway station

Rockcliffe railway station, later Rockcliffe Halt, served the rural area around Rockcliffe, north of Carlisle in the English county of Cumberland (now part of Cumbria); it lay some distance from the village. The station was served by local trains on what is now known as the West Coast Main Line. The nearest station for Rockcliffe is now at Carlisle.

History
Opened by the Caledonian Railway, it became part of the London Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923 and BR in 1948. It closed briefly during WW1 and was renamed as Rockcliffe Halt in 1950 when regular passenger service ceased after which it was only used by railway workers at the nearby marshalling yards until 1965.

The station had a stationmaster's house, with combined ticket office and a waiting room. The line is still double track here.

The site today
Trains pass through the site at speed on the electrified West Coast Main Line. The station platforms have been demolished and the pedestrian overbridge has been removed; however, the stationmaster's house remains as a private dwelling.
