An important Junction station in its day not least due the proximity of the vast Low Moor Iron Works. Whilst the junction on the Halifax - Bradford with the Spen Valley line opened in 1850 the station had opened a couple of years earlier. The station closed in 1965 by which time the iron workd had long been in decline. As of late 2015 work is in progress to re-open a station. The junction closed in 1981.
