Services
Monday to Saturdays there is generally a two-hourly service southbound to Leeds (eight trains a day in total Mon-Sat) and northbound to Carlisle (seven). The last train of the day from Leeds runs only as far as Ribblehead and the corresponding return to Leeds starts back from there.
On Sundays there are now four trains in each direction throughout the year (including one through train to Nottingham), plus an additional one or two summer services between Preston and Carlisle via Blackburn and Clitheroe (northbound in the morning, returning south in the afternoon} operated by Northern Rail under the Dalesrail brand.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“We now in the United States have more security guards for the rich than we have police services for the poor districts. If you’re looking for personal security, far better to move to the suburbs than to pay taxes in New York.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“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)
