History
Fyling Hall station opened with the whole line from Scarborough to Whitby in July 1885,Шаблон:Sfn and was Шаблон:Convert north of Scarborough railway station, and Шаблон:Convert south of Шаблон:Rws railway station.[1] The station had the one platform located on the western edge of the line, with the toilets, goods store, waiting room, booking office and signal cabin all located on the platform itself.[2] A single-road goods yard was located behind the platform capable of handling livestock and general goods, although there was no permanent crane.Шаблон:Sfn[3][4] The station was often mis-spelt as Flying Hall in tourist literature.[1]Шаблон:Sfn
In 1911, the North Eastern Railway assessed the station as having a catchment of 200 people, with 5,700 tickets issued in the same surveyed year.[5] It closed temporarily on 1 December 1915[6] as a wartime economy measure, before reopening on 18 September 1920.[7] In 1934 it became a block post to allow two trains on the line between Ravenscar and Robins Hood Bay travelling at the same time in the same direction.[6] In the same year, the construction of a passing loop was proposed as Fyling Hall was one of four stations on the line which did not possess one, but the proposal was rejected because the traffic levels that would justify it only occurred over short time periods. It became an unstaffed halt from 5 May 1958[4] with a siding remaining in use for public deliveries.[6]
Freight services were discontinued on 4 May 1964, and the station finally closed on 8 March 1965.[8] The remains of the platforms are now overgrown with vegetation, and the station has been converted to a dwelling.[6] The site is open as part of the railway path between Robin Hood's Bay and Ravenscar.Шаблон:Sfn
