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.
