Broomfleet railway station serves the village of Broomfleet in the East Riding of Yorkshire , England . The station is on the Selby Line 14 + 1 ⁄ 2 miles (23.3 km) west of Hull . The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Northern . Formerly located on a quadrupled section of line with platforms on the outer ('slow') lines only, the station was rebuilt when the section from Gilberdyke was reduced to double track around 1987. ^[1]

History [ edit ]

The station was opened on 1 July 1840 by the Hull and Selby Railway ; originally named Bromfleet , it was renamed Broomfleet in January 1851 by the York and North Midland Railway . From October 1861 to November 1872 the station was not served by timetabled passenger trains. ^[2] For many years it had a very sparse train service on market days only. A full service was introduced by the North Eastern Railway in October 1907. ^[3]

Facilities [ edit ]

The station is an unstaffed halt with only basic shelters and timetable poster boards on offer. Tickets can only be bought on the train or prior to travel. Step-free access is available to both platforms via ramps, but this is via the adjacent level crossing and so care is advised when using it. ^[4]

Services [ edit ]

There is a limited and somewhat irregular service to and from Broomfleet with four trains per day Monday to Saturday towards Hull eastbound, but seven per day towards Doncaster or York westbound. ^[5] There is no Sunday service.
