Old railway viaduct (Central Viaduct) crossing the Aire valley
Built in 1846 for the Leeds and Thirsk and Leeds Dewsbury and Manchester Railways, it was one of the earliest railways in Leeds and the viaduct represents one of just a couple of examples of the work of the engineer Thomas Grainger outside Scotland. The line was closed when Leeds Central Station was closed in 1967. Much of the viaduct was demolished, the surviving section includes the large arches over the River Aire and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, and a series of smaller arches west of the canal (this view). This remaining section is Listed Grade II.

Between the viaducts
Looking from the recently converted section of Central Viaduct, which was a 'slip road' between the Great Northern Railway and Midland Railway's main lines out of Leeds, to the GNR's viaduct. Such was the density of rail lines in this area in the railway's heyday that there was another viaduct between these two, serving platforms at the GNR's Holbeck station. These arches look to have been cleared out ready for potential commercial use.

Freight at Whitehall Junction
Whitehall Junction is a notorious flat railway junction to the west of Leeds station. Whenever a freight train needs to cross it to get from south of the city onto the main line towards Skipton and Carlisle, all other trains into and out of the station have to be halted, as was the one I was on at the time.
