HFF Bradford West Yorkshire 15th April 2025

It's good to see this Midland Railway relic is still in situ by the site of the long-gone Forster Square station in Bradford. It is at least 102 years old and the wrought iron MR is wearing thin!

This was the entrance to the station back in the day but today it is just a fence in the Midland Hotel car park. The present-day station is some distance further north.

HFF to everyone. Enjoy the weekend.

The ravages of time have taken their toll on it, but it's still charming to look at. HFF Pete.

Hi Pete
A wonderful and interesting picture!
Very nice composition which I like very much!
Wonderful story, but I am surprised it didn't get taken down in the war, along with all the other railings!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!
