The line is double track between Poppleton and Skelton Junction in York. West of Poppleton, the line is single track as far as Hammerton.[1]
The station has a nursery (horticultural), which used to supply plants across the stations in Yorkshire pre-privatisation. A two-foot gauge railway still operates around the nursery.
In 2022-2023, the destination with the most journeys was York, with 36,554 journeys (50.7% of journeys).
The main buildings here are now privately occupied and the station is unmanned. The lack of ticket machines means that tickets need to be purchased either on the train or in advance.[2] There are shelters and digital information screens on each platform. Step-free access is available to both platforms, which are linked by the manually-operated level crossing, which still retains its wooden gates and ground-level signal box.[3]
As of the May 2023 timetable change, the station is served by a half-hourly service between Leeds via Harrogate and York, with additional services running at peak times. All services are operated by Northern Trains.[4]
