Carnaby railway station was a minor railway station serving the village of Carnaby on the Yorkshire Coast Line from Scarborough to Hull, England. The station probably opened on 7 October 1846 when the York and North Midland Railway opened the line between Hull and Bridlington. [1]
The station was host to a camping coach from 1935 to 1939. [2]
The station closed on 5 January 1970. [1]
The western end of the station was to be the junction of the Bridlington and North Frodingham Light Railway. [3] The act of parliament for this line was granted in 1898 under the Light Railways Act 1896. [4] The line was to have been standard gauge and worked by steam locomotives throughout. [3] The line was never built.
As of 2025, the two platforms are still visible and can be seen from the main road next to the station, however overgrown.
