The main line (to the left of the brick building) is the former South Yorkshire Railway and River Dun Navigation Company line of 1866. The lines to the right of the fence serve a local factory and the line furthest from the camera on the right of the picture is the South Yorkshire Joint railway line of 1900 which acted as a Doncaster station avoiding line for freight traffic coming from collieries to the south of Doncaster.
