# Brompton Road Halt railway station

Brompton Road Halt (or Brompton Road Platform) was a railway station in what is now the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. It was located on the Catterick Camp (now Catterick Garrison) sub branch of the Eryholme-Richmond branch line and served the village of Brompton-on-Swale.

The station opened together with the line in 1915 and was also known in timetables as Catterick Bridge. It was situated just south of Catterick Bridge goods yard and had a timber platform, a small booking office and a ground frame. Passengers changing trains here had to walk a short distance to or from Catterick Bridge station, through troop trains did not stop here. In 1943 it was resited south of Brompton Road. The new station had a brick and concrete platform and a ground level signal box with a four-lever frame next to the level crossing. The line closed in 1964, and the tracks were lifted in 1970. In 1988 the platform was demolished.
