Thanks for the information. It was a smart station. It's a pity it was not retained to support fresh housing and commercial development, like the other alpine routes in Switzerland

Queensbury tunnel flooded after the drainage ditches at the other (Holmefield) end were not maintained. A few year ago it was partly filled in by tipping filling material down a vent shaft. There was a proposal to turn it into a cycle way but that effort came to nothing. I think on U tube there is video of someone exploring the tunnel, before it was filled.

Thanks for making that film, very interesting. It must have been a confusing station to use, with a train for your destination leaving from two possible platforms a long walk apart!

Very much like Shipley in West Yorkshire

There has been poor planning, compared to Queensbury many of the new council houses built in the Bradford suburbs have no trains or trams, e.g., Wibsey

Many disused tunnels in the UK have been converted into cycleways. The local council in Bradford needs to pull its finger out and help fund Sustran to reopen it as a social amenity.
