Summary

Description
English: Pittington railway station (site), County Durham
Opened in 1837 by the Durham& Sunderland Railway, eventually part of the North Eastern Railway, this station closed to passengers in 1954. View north east from the former level crossing diagonally across the road towards Hetton and Sunderland. The railway line went to approximately the left hand side of the National speed limit sign. The single platform was just to the right of this line, beyond where the fence now is. No trace apparently remains.
