My mate found the photo's dumped on the floor in a
corner of an empty office he took over for his business and
passed them on to me.
I was born in Dewsbury in 1952 and can recall the Old Central station

This
is a picture of a platform at Batley station that no longer exists. I
believe it was the island platform that trains from Earlsheaton,
Dewsbury, Batley Carr came to. If you go to Batley station and go down
the steps to go over to platform 2 before you go up the steps you can
see where it has been bricked up, where u could carry on going to then
reach this platform. |
