My favourite has to be edale station in the peak district. beautiful surroundings, peace and quite. Its quite easy to sit and imagine how it used to be during steam days!! The old signal box still in use stands well, and is wonderful to see with a sprinkling of snow on the ground. Alas there is very little variety of loco's these days and the choice is either diesel sprinter cars or EWS yeoman pulled freights, mainly full of limestone from the blue circle cement factory at castleton. Ah, how i long to return to the 80's when no two trains were the same....
My second favourite would have to be sherinham station on the north norfolk railway that runs from sheringham to holt, beautifully preserved, and lovely to see steam sat at the platform!!
