A Working Junction on the East Coast Main Line
This camera overlooks one of Britain's busiest railway hubs from the York Rail Operating Centre. The sweeping curves of York Station channel express, regional and freight services across the East Coast Main Line, making it a constant stage of arriving and departing trains.
Victorian Engineering in View
The station's celebrated curved iron-and-glass train shed, opened in 1877, dominates the middle distance. Around it run a complex web of tracks, sidings and overhead lines that reveal the scale of the modern signalling operation managed from this centre.
The Minster on the Horizon
Beyond the platforms, the medieval cityscape of York unfolds, crowned by the Gothic towers of York Minster. The contrast of historic spires and working railway captures the character of this ancient Yorkshire city.
A Hub for Rail Enthusiasts
