Wooler

  • Description

    "...Wooler was the most important intermediate station on the line, with a large goods yard and warehouse. There were four sidings on the west side of the line, one with a loop. One of the sidings passed through the substantial goods shed and another served coal drops. Wooler was the only station on the line with two separate platforms, a footbridge, and waiting rooms on both sides on the line. In later years Wooler station house became a Youth Hostel. To prevent any ‘carry on’ between visitors, males and females had their own separate sleeping accommodation, on opposite sides of the railway line...."
