What has now been replaced by homes, businesses and walking trails hides the history of the Great Northern Railway in Bradford. In a hook-shape around the Eastern periphery of the city the line connected up the former industry that once catapulted Bradford to its short-term wealth and fame. So lets explore how the railway came and went...

I was born in Shipley (Windhill) and - before we emigrated to Australia when I was 9yrs old - have many fond memories of playing around the disused railway tracks, closed railway tunnels and sprinting over the bridges over the old tracks.

Perhaps the old Shipley branch line could be reopened and electrified. And electrification at Bradford Interchange if other lines are to be electrified.

Yeah! That would be really interesting a bit like a Bradford Overground of sorts, though the line in sections has been heavily built on so it would need alot of work to bring it back. Hope you've had a good day!
