When first built, Teignmouth station was situated between two tunnels, although both of them were opened out between 1881 and 1884. Another station built between two tunnels is Bangor (Gwynedd), although is this case both of the tunnels are still extant.

In a contradiction of the name, Old Street station was opened nearly 50 years after New Lane, in 1901.

The Northern City Line runs from Moorgate to Finsbury Park with services running beyond. There are two intermediate stations, one of which is Drayton Park.

Bryn station is the first stop in the Transport for Greater Manchester area; Garswood is the last stop within Merseytravel's ticket zone.

Cuddington has won a number of awards in the Cheshire Best Kept Stations Competition for its gardens, which are maintained by local volunteers. It won the Community Award in 2014, recognising the continual support of the local villagers at this country railway station. No award was made in 2020, but Handforth (which also has a "Friends" organisation) won the same award in 2019.
