Opened in 1890 as "Bradford Market Street" by the Midland Railway to replace the original 1846 Leeds and Bradford Railway station which had been behind the retaining wall to the left of this image, this station was renamed "Bradford Forster Square" in 1924. It closed in 1990 when it was replaced by a smaller station just to the immediate right and behind the camera position - see Image View south towards the buffers. See also Image for a 2022 view taken from a little further back and to the left. The retaining wall is the reference point.
