 | | In its heyday it was an impressive station, with four platforms, extensive sidings, and Refreshment Rooms, which for long were the fashionable place to meet in Eaglescliffe. |
 | | Many famous people had to change trains at Eaglescliffe, and the daughter of the station master in the 1940s remembers some of these, including the opera star, Beniamino Gigli, on his way north to a concert. |
 | | Today Eaglescliffe Station is a sad relic; looking south, showing the Junction, where the line from Leeds and Yarm joined the Darlington line. |
