View westward, under the main Swinton & Knottingley (ex-Midland & NE Joint) line from York via Church Fenton (to the right) to Pontefract and Sheffield (to the left). The station, which was up to the left, was purely for local purposes, being close to Pontefract and Knottingley, was closed 13/9/65, but the lines remain on busy routes. (Cf. Image], which shows interesting changes since 1995.)
