Title
Pudsey Low Town Station - DNT00163
Description
In 1878 a branch from Stanningley on the GNR Leeds-Bradford ‘short line was opened up to Pudsey Greenside with a station here. Then in 1893 a curve from Bramley to the Pudsey Branch was constructed which was then extended to Cutlers Junction at Laisterdyke via Dudley Hill creating both the Pudsey Loop and at Dudley Hill a connection to Low Moor and the Spen Valley. The branch from Stanningley was disconnected becoming a siding for Stanningley.
the station closed in 1964 and the loop the following year once again leaving Pudsey without a railway in the town although a new station named New Pudsey was opened by BR in 1967 on the main Leeds-Bradford line but a mile from the town.
