July 1978Station closed

Warrenby Halt opened in 1916 having been built to serve the village of Warrenby in Redcar and Cleveland, England and the nearby Dorman Long works. It consisted of wooden platforms and brick-built shelters and was gas lit.[1]

In 1978 the railway was diverted to allow for the building of the Redcar steelworks, leaving Warrenby bypassed. A new station Redcar British Steel opened on the deviation line to take its place.[2]

One of Warrenby Halt's platforms survives at Newton Dale Halt on the North York Moors Railway.[3]
