It closed to passengers in 1953 and to goods services in 1964^[1]; the station building is now a hostel.^[2] In 1983 the Selby Diversion was opened which led to the closure of the railway line through Naburn; the trackbed is now used as a cycle path between York and Selby and is part of the National Cycle Network and Trans Pennine Trail.
