Thanks very much Reece, happy to hear you've enjoyed it. Well, its different and nice to add a mixed bag of stations of various lines :-)

Thank you for sharing Ricky, I am glad you had a good time here in West Yorkshire. It brought back happy memories for me of autumn 1985 when I first began travelling around on all the railways in West Yorkshire, when most of the services were still operated by first generation DMUs and West Yorkshire child day rovers only cost 50 pence lol. I still enjoy travelling on these railways to this day.

Wow Richard, how the times have changed. Also, the lines weren't electrified until the mid 90's? And worked by the class 142 & 144 Pacer buses. Oh, the legend of the first generation DMU's and pride of the line, such comfort by them. Thank you Richard, all the best for 2024 :-)

@@RickyNowis Thank you Ricky, you too. Yes that's right, both the Ilkley & Skipton lines were electrified in the mid 1990s. :)
