The station was host to camping coach from 1936 to 1939 and may have had a coach visiting in 1934 and 1935.[2]
The track has been dismantled and the A66 road now uses the route of the railway at this point. The former A66 route past the station is now a haulage yard.
Although the village is also close to the Settle-Carlisle Railway, and there is an active private siding and goods yard, there has never been a passenger station on that line at this point.
