There are now just two tracks of the Leeds to Bradford railway line, which since the removal of Hammerton Street curve in Bradford sees only passenger traffic. About 200m from the bridge (roughly where the back of this train is) was Stanningley Junction where the line to Low Moor branched off. The train is diesel unit 195001 on the 18.42 Leeds to Chester service.
