MASBOROUGH REMEMBERED
The following photographs show Rotherham Masborough, at one time one of three stations serving the town and, for many years, the only station until Central was opened in 1987. After this, only local York services and non-stop Inter City expresses passed through the station. It has since closed although the line through it is used by, amongst others, Virgin Trains and Arriva Northern services.
