York railway station is a main-line railway station in the city of York, England. It lies on Britain's East Coast Main Line (ECML) 188.5 miles (303 km) north of London, the main line connecting the capital of England with Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. Originally it was part of the North Eastern Railway. Despite the small size of the city, York is one of the most important railway stations on the British railway network because of its role as a key railway junction approximately halfway between London and Edinburgh. It is few miles north of the point where the Cross Country and Trans-Pennine routes via Leeds leave/join the ECML connecting Scotland and the North East with southern England, the North West and the Midlands. The junction was historically a major site for rolling stock manufacture, maintenance and repair.
