This track used to carry the railway from Queensbury to Halifax - seen here approaching the concealed portal of a long tunnel. The photograph is taken from the site of Queensbury Station - a 6 platform arrangement designed in a triangle, at least 400 ft below the town it served. The outline of the station is easier seen from above, than on the same level.
