The remains of the eastbound platform of Cutsyke station, opened by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway in 1849 (at that time called Castleford since it was meant to serve the town as an alternative to the North Eastern Railway's station of the same name) and closed in 1968 when the Leeds-Knottingley service was diverted via the current Castleford station.
