Title

Copley Station - GEE00101

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. It closed in 1931. The wooden Waiting Room scene here had originally been the temporary station in Halifax at the bottom of Horton Street between 1850 and completion of the new station in 1855.
