Railway bridge, former Queensbury station
Railway bridge, former Queensbury station
This bridge over Brow Lane (looking eastwards) was at the Keighley end of the celebrated Queensbury station on the Great Northern lines between Halifax, Bradford and Keighley. This station, hundreds of feet below the town it was meant to serve, had a full set of six platforms on a triangle. Note the access ramp (which leads to a farm) at the far side and to the left, tucked under the bridge itself due to the road's steep gradient.
