The Disused Railway Station North of Doncaster

- Easter Sunday I travelled to Doncaster to stay in Doncaster overnight to visit the York Model Rail Show but while in South Yorkshire I decided to visit a disused station which is north of Doncaster Station on the East Coast Main Line between Doncaster and York.
The journey from Doncaster takes SimOnTrains on a Northern Class 331 to Bentley Station and then a 20 minute walk to a level crossing on the East Coast Main Line near the village of Arksey which see LNER Azumas, Hull Trains, Grand Central Trains and CrossCountry Trains. the location is very interesting.

Great video, Cyber!
Check out Barlaston Wedgwood and Norton Bridge the 3 disused stations in Staffordshire!
One of best stations for spotting Doncaster in 80’s especially with all freight when the pits were open. Bentley got a big travelling community.
Nicely done Cyber! Some interesting history on this section of the ECML with the GNR & NER!

This was yet another fantastic Simontrains Railway Journey where you visited Arksey a disused Railway Station where sadly nothing remains there apart from the level crossing it certainly looks like a decent location to film trains at speed at that level crossing I continue to enjoy watching your content Simontrains and I look forward to watching many more of your future Vlogs until then carry on being awesome keep up the good work take care and stay safe
Doncaster is great for train spotting. I've been before and had fun.
Doncaster Is a awesome location, use to remember the HSTs and Class 91s rushing through
Lovely footage of the level crossing Sherlock 👍
Nice vlog Simon. Great to see the disused Station. I’ve not been to the Doncaster area for a few years now! The crossing and station look brilliant for Trainspotting.
Just love your historical details. So well done!!!
Thank you PS. Montreal
Great video
Brilliant video Cyber, never been to that crossing but I have been been through it on the train a number of times, interesting to know there used to be a station there.
Hi Simon Great video, I noticed at 0.59 and 1.00 and 1.02 that there are still some of the old line speed posts (metal with the arrows pointing left or right and the numbers on top), I had thought these had all been replaced by the newer red and white circles, but obviously not. Well done on capturing those. Thanks
1:15 ah yeah so that’s the line to Leeds diverging to the left and turning away from the east coast mainline
that level crossing looks like a good place to film the trains ill have to have a go at doing a level crossing at some point brilliant vlog
Interesting, disused railway locations Is a favourite aspect of the hobby. I looked up my (usually trusty) Disused Stations web site but Arksey wasn’t listed . Anyway, cheers.
Think the Disused Stations website doesn't have then all listed yet as they're till working on visiting them. Rail Map Online or National Library of Scotland for the OS Maps are two areas I love to go to when looking at Disused Stations. Thanks Michelle
Hi Simon I gave you a like
Thanks Paul. Appreciated :D
Looks like a great location for watching the trains! :) did the three lads enjoy the trains too?
I went over that crossing today.
Interesting Simon - I live in Doncaster and never knew that Arksey had a station years ago.
Good interesting video again Simon!
I'll be honest, I would have felt very intimidated by those three youths at the level crossing and I would have left the scene as fast as I could.
I admire you for standing your ground. 👍🙂
Honestly they wanted to be in the video after they saw me vlogging in the distance. Thanks Ian
there is a second disused station thats south of doncaster on the sheffield junction but sadly you can not get down to it
Very good location to do train spotting to the north of Doncaster. Mind you those kids do look like they were causing trouble whilst a train was passing by and there has been lots of trespassing resulting in fatalities on the railways.
Same line and not far from there was another station askern 1848-1948 people wanted it to be brung back but it hasn’t been.
nothing wrong with Doncaster Station
Doncaster is a good location 👌
Can you do Askern as well . right now we in the bidding war for the fund money for a new station the old station is behind the new library the railway come when Askern was a spa town that at the time was as well know as Harrogate for the waters
Just notice your message and went to research the location straight away and honestly. It got me interested in visiting the Disused Station (Old Railway Station) now as I can see the old platforms still remains. Not going to lie, I can see this as a good location to reopen a former station. Next time in Yorkshire I come down and have a look.
@SimOnTrains best way to get is doncaster to Adwick then 51 bus to Askern
last i saw of askern they had already built houses on the station site yet isnt there a disused station at norton which still stands but as a private dwelling
Why are DB taking 31s/47s and 56s to Normanton tomorrow, any one no,
I have no idea on that one sorry
