  • Scarborough is an old British railway station and has the honour of having The World's Longest Railway bench! It can be found at Scarborough Railway Station and measures 139 metres! The Victorian bench has been refurbished fairly recently.
    Each of the 2500+ railway stations has something that makes them a little different, unique even. And at Scarborough train station it's the long bench at the end of platform 1.
    Platform 1 was a necessary addition to Scarborough station in 1883 due to the number of passengers using the station and this was probably the time when the bench was installed.

    You should look at the beaches up the coast at Seaton Carew bus station I'm pretty sure the longest I've seen in England indeed the world!The Scarborough to Whitby line was actually Scarborough to Middlesbrough and still exists in part the section Boulby to Middlesbrough still exists but is freight only to Saltburn and it has a disused station with the platforms intact at I think Brotton or Skelton can't remember which.
