Summary[edit]

Description
English: Batley (ex-GN) Station.

This is the ex-GNR Station at Batley, looking NE from beside the ex-LNW Manchester - Leeds main line - seen in the foreground, the picture being taken possibly from the platform of the ex-LNW Batley Station, which is the present Station. The ex-GN Station depicted, which was closed on 7/9/64, was served by the lines from Wakefield (Westgate) and Ossett via Dewsbury (closed 7/9/64, Goods 15/2/65). It went on to Leeds (Central) via Tingley and Beeston (closed to passengers 29/10/51, goods 30/6/64) and to Bradford (Exchange) via Adwalton Junction (closed 7/9/64, Goods 15/2/65), then Drighlington & Adwalton and Laisterdyke (closed to passengers 4/7/66, Goods 31/10/66 - 16/3/68). There was also a GN line (Goods only) from Ossett to Batley direct, which lasted until 1/5/72.

The history of the Railways in this area is very complicated - I'm no expert and I'm open to correction and enlightenment!
