In the 1950s and 1960s under stationmaster Taylor, Horton won the Best Kept Station award for seventeen consecutive years.[1] The station lost its passenger service on 4 May 1970, but reopened in July 1986,[2] along with several other local stations on the line under British Rail.

Service

It gets about one train every two hours in each direction - one to Leeds (seven in total) and one to Carlisle (five, plus one evening train that terminates at Ribblehead). The total is slightly imbalanced as certain services do not stop here. There is an extra train in both directions on Saturdays, whilst there are three trains a day to both Leeds and Carlisle on Sundays.[3] Dalesrail trains between Blackpool/Preston and Carlisle (one each way) also serve the station during the summer months.
