English: Birkenshaw & Tong Station (remains).
View ESE, towards Wakefield; ex-GN Wakefield (Westgate) - Bradford (Exchange) (via Ardsley or via Dewsbury) lines. The station was closed to passengers on 5/10/53, but seems to be fairly intact, being open for goods until 7/9/64. The line via Dewsbury was closed on 15/2/65, the direct line via Morley closed in stages to 5/5/69. The short Down goods train is headed by a J50 class 0-6-0T, common in the area.
