Extract from a map published in 1954 showing the lines linking the Scarborough - Hull route with Filey Holiday Camp station. The branch ran from Royal Oak North and South Junctions on the main line to the 4-platform terminus half a mile away. The station was located on the west side of the busy A165 with the large Butlins Camp on the opposite side. The task of ferrying arrivals and departures between the busy station and the camp itself (which could accommodate up to 11,000 people) was undertaken by Butlins Road Trains running via a private tunnel under the road.
