The Robin Hood’s Bay railway station opened in 1885, on the stretch of line from Scarborough to Whitby. It was one of the most dramatic routes in England with superb coastal scenery all the way; unfortunately this was not a consideration when Beeching wielded his infamous axe in 1965 and closed the line.
