Services
The Monday to Saturday daytime service is generally a half-hourly from Harrogate to Leeds (southbound) calling at all stations and to Knaresborough (eastbound) on the Harrogate Line with an hourly service onwards to York also calling at all stations en route.
Services double in frequency at peak time to Leeds, resulting in 4tph (trains per hour) with 1tph running fast to Horsforth. There are 4tph in the opposite direction between 16:29 and 18:00 from Leeds with one running fast from Horsforth to Harrogate.
Evenings and Sundays there is generally an hourly service from Leeds through Harrogate towards Knaresborough and York.
East Coast operates a daily service starting in Harrogate towards Leeds, stopping once at Horsforth, then onto London King's Cross. The evening service from London King's Cross to Harrogate does not call at Horsforth.
There are proposals to create another station between Harrogate and Starbeck at Bilton.
Most trains are operated by Class 150 DMUs although Class 142, 144 & 153 are also found; Class 155 units are also fairly common and occasionally Class 158 units are used. There are two High Speed Trains per day to and from London Kings Cross via Leeds respectively.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“True love ennobles and dignifies the material labors of life; and homely services rendered for love’s sake have in them a poetry that is immortal.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“I see this evident, that we willingly accord to piety only the services that flatter our passions.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
