Harrogate Railway Station - Services

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:

    Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.
    Jeanne Elium (20th century)

    Civil servants and priests, soldiers and ballet-dancers, schoolmasters and police constables, Greek museums and Gothic steeples, civil list and services list—the common seed within which all these fabulous beings slumber in embryo is taxation.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    O, the difference of man and man!
    To thee a woman’s services are due.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
