Title
Copley School and Station. - GEE00100
Description
From Milner Royd Junction the line to Halifax climbs steeply and over the magnificent Copley Viaduct leaving the Calder Valley line way below. A station was opened at Copley in 1855 to serve Akroyd’s model factory village, which pre-dated the much more famous Saltaire.
An engine at the station can be seen behind the playground of the school in this photo of about 1904. The station closed in 1931.
