Gleethrop End is the intermediate station on the branch line from Dovedale Central to Perthtyne. This station has 3 tracks and 3 platforms each with TDEUs. This station is generally quiet due to most trains going to Pallion Harbour after passing through Dovedale Central and the lack of frequent shunting of Class 156s and Class 158s spawning at Dovedale Central.
The station houses the spawner for the admin-only Class 411 on the terminating platform.
In version 1.2, the station received a roof, an overpass, benches and an additional platform in the middle.
Prior to version 1.0, the station had hosted two "Dale Mail" post boxes. Now, the only remaining one can be found at the Lighthouse.
While the Releovka System was in use, only 1 platform was available. Another platform was added after Dovedale Central overhaul, but turning back from this station required shunting as there were no crossovers.
