St Bee's Station

St Bees Station opened in 1849. St Bees is one of the few mandatory stops on this section of the line (along with Askam, Sellafield, Ravenglass & Millom) and as a result all trains call here. It is the location of the only passing loop on the lengthy single track section between Whitehaven and Sellafield and trains are often scheduled to pass here

Cumbrian Coast Line

This railway follows the West Cumbria Coast from Barrow to Carlisle. First opened in 1844 and completed in 1866.
