  ## History
  
  The station was opened to the public on 5 June 1846 by the Middlesbrough and Redcar Railway, although it had opened a day earlier for a VIP special and an excursion. Lazenby station was 4.5 miles (7.2 km) east of Middlesbrough, and 3.5 miles (5.6 km) west of the original Redcar railway station. It closed in May 1864. It erroneously appeared in the 1867 and 1872 editions of the handbook of stations.
