Langwathby station is a medium-sized station building, now housing attractive tea rooms, 'Brief Encounter'. The recently built waiting shelter on the Southbound platform was designed to follow the original Midland Railway shelter at Langwathby which used wood instead of local stone.
The station closed to passengers on 4th May 1970 after being unstaffed since 1967.
Local stations were re-opened in 1986 prior to the line being finally reprieved in 1989.
