From the Wikipedia article
Nunthorpe is a railway station on the Esk Valley Line, which runs between Middlesbrough and Whitby. The station serves the village of Nunthorpe, in North Yorkshire, England; it lies 4 miles 48 chains (7.4 km) south-east of Middlesbrough. It is owned by Network Rail and managed by Northern Trains. One of the two passing loops on the line is located here, and there is a level crossing at the eastern end. The signal box that operates it also supervises the movements of trains on the entire branch and remotely controls the junction further down the line at Battersby. Renewal work in February 2026 has seen new sliding crossing gates installed here, as well as LED colour light signals to replace the old semaphores.

Background
History
Nunthorpe was originally on the Middlesbrough and Guisborough Railway line, opening in 1854. In 1964, the line between Nunthorpe and was closed, meaning Nunthorpe was no longer a junction and only a station on the line to Whitby via Battersby. The December 2007 timetable brought about significant changes; the service is now better than it has been since the mid-1980s, when there was an hourly Nunthorpe – Middlesbrough service including seven Whitby trains.
