![47433 takes a, possibly cross country, service towards Leeds, following departure from Wakefield Westgate Station, in the 1980s. Location is by the north junction for the branch from Stanley and Methley which formed a triangle with the main line. The old Outwood station was on the south junction, near the site of the new station just beyond the rear of the train. Lofthouse Colliery would have formed the backdrop in the 60's.<br><br>[David Pesterfield //]](/images/26000/26745.jpg "Outwood")

![7029 <i>Clun Castle</i> heads north through Wakefield Westgate on an Ian Allan special from Kings Cross to Leeds (and the Middleton Railway) on 17 September 1967. Visible to the right of shot are the former bay platforms used for the local Wakefield to Bradford Exchange services, via Ossett, Dewsbury Central, Batley and Drighlington, and those to Castleford via Stanley & Methley. These have now been grassed over [see image 33613].
