Eryholme-Richmond Branch Line - Catterick Sub Branch

Catterick Sub Branch

The start of the First World War saw the hasty construction of a sub branch line to Catterick Camp (now Catterick Garrison). The sub branch separated near Brompton-on-Swale crossing the River Swale via Catterick Railway Bridge, which still stands parallel to the stone bridge that gives the settlement of Catterick Bridge its name. The branch then served the Catterick Garrison.
