Railway at Idle West Yorkshire.

Now almost completely lost is the GN railway line, station and goods yard at Idle, my home village. Idle was in ancient times a Township and as such when the railways came was awarded a substantial rail structure with station goods yards etc. All that now remains is the eastern most buttress of the bridge crossing the high street opposite Barclays Bank. The council have recently built a small seating area at it's foot with flower beds. The station building was an exact match of the others on this rugged line around North East Bradford. Look back at my picture of Windhill GN station.
