Hello
I am interested in the Main Station Buildings found at stations such as Goathland (the most well known). I would like to know more about these station building and would like to know if they were of a particular design, designation or type. I am also trying to find the locations where all of these types of station buildings were built. Any help with information, locations, building plans and/or photos would be appreciated.
Those I have discovered so far are:
Goathland, Egton, Glaisdale, Lealholm, Danby, Witton Gilbert (photo below), Dacre, Pateley Bridge, Knitsley, Lanchester.
Many thanks
Dave

You will find all the info you require in the 3 books published by the North Eastern Railway Association,
A History of North Eastern Railway Architecture by Bill Fawcett. Well worth a read.

Having checked on current availability of these books,£40.00 odd per book is a bit steep for my pockets
Does anyone have copies of these book who could help me pin down the Volume/Chapters I would need please?

The Bill Fawcett books are excellent. If you're anywhere near County Durham the library service holds all 3 volumes in their reserves.

Hi Jon
Many thanks for that info. Co. Durham is not too far from me, certainly worth a visit in that case.
