Show on map The Lingdale Branch junction went south-west to the Lingdale Ironstone Mine and south-east to the Kilton Ironstone Mine.
The central cutting was for the never completed Paddy Waddells Cleveland Extension Mineral Railway. The substantial remains of the bridge supports for the junction still stand on the edge of Kilton Thorpe
Show on map Grangetown Railway Station originally dated from 1885 (when it was named Eston Grange and served that long lost community) The station has been disused since November 1991. The location is actually about 1km from the current Grangetown so its usage probably dropped to nothing when the industury it served closed.
Â
The sizes of the ramps shows the volume of people who must have passed through it.
 Â
Â
This rubbish filled subway leads to a set of steps would have gone towards the South Bank Ironworks
 
Â
Although most of the station is relatively modern, there are some heavy sandstone blocks alongside the black path which hint at its earlier 1800s incarnation.
Â
An internal railway line to the ironworks runs immediately alongside the station.
Â
Â
Show on map The location of Eston Station is marked by a planter erected by the Eston Residents Association.Â
Â
Â
The station was used for passengers between January 1902 and June 1929
Craig Hornby adds that it ran goods deliveries to Eston until 1964.

Show on map Saturday and Sunday 11th and 12th September a new exhibition will start in Grosmont Parish Church (North Yorks) focussing on the local ironworks, although access may be restricted on the Sunday during a visit by His Grace the Archbishop of York.
On SATURDAY there will be a walk from the church led by Simon Chapman, departing 1 pm, to visit the sites of ironworks and mines including Murkside. On return to Grosmont there will be an optional tour of the workshops and engine shed of the North York Moors Railway.

In the stream are the footings for a rail bridge which connected Waterfall Ironstone mine to the branch for Skelton Park and Skelton Shaft mines.
A number of rails presumably originally from the bridge appear to have been reused to strengthen the bank on the right.
Show on map At this point the railway link to the Rosedale mines passed under the road.
Â
A cutting can be seen approching the now blocked bridge, with a junction in the left of the photo leading off to the Blakey / Farndale mines.
A row of cottages were also present at this junction but have since been demolished.
Show on map This tunnel which is now a footpath to the NYMR engine sheds was originally built around 1834 by George Stephenson as part of the Whitby to Pickering Railway. Grosmont at the time was just known as “Tunnel”
 
The original carriages were horse drawn, but the the line was developed by George Hudsons’ York and North Midland Railway between 1845 and 1849, the large double track tunnel built just over a decade later shows the pace of development at that time.
Show on map With the nights closing in, I’m having to trawl my old photos for new material.
On the Rosedale Railway, at the head of the incline down towards the Farndale mines are the remains of a hand powered windlass.
Many other scraps of railway embankments and cuttings lie in the immediate area.
Show on map The Cleveland Extension Mineral Railway was proposed in the 1870s to run from Kilton Thorpe to the ironworks at Glaisdale, the contractor was John Waddell.
With the collapse of mining in Eskdale the line was never completed although embankments and cuttings for the line can still be seen in several places.
The Station Hotel was also built in anticipation at Moorsholm, but the railway never materialised.
Show on map The original 1846 Redcar railway station was located just near the town clock, its long gone and the site is now a modern building. However one of the new Redcar Heritage plaques has very recently been erected there.
Â
The location can be seen marked as “Central Hall” in this previous post about the railway cottages
