First stop, Bingley ralway station, in Midland days.
There's still a reminder of the MR.
Modern diesel and electrics serve Bingley today.
Bradford's trams once reached Bingley. Car 236 is seen on Main Street.
Firstbus is the main bus operator these days.
TLC have a small share of the local routes.
Opposite the railway was Foundry Hill, since renamed as Peacock Bar.
Close by was Off The Tap. It used to have decent real ales, but now it's been renamed and only sells keg.
The Library Tap is just around the corner.
The Myrtle Grove is Bingley's Wetherspoons.
The Bingley Tavern has now closed its doors, seemingly for ever.
There's a brilliant micropub nearby, the Chip N Ern.
The Ferrands Arms, seen here as a Taylor's house, has since been renamed as the Market Square Tavern.
Down by the river is the Brown Cow, a lovely Taylor's pub.
Into the hills now, to find the long gone Great Northern Railway, seen here at Cullingworth.
The remote GNR station at Denholme.
Lets follow the GNR into the outskirts of Bradford, where we find the signal box at Thornton.
Bradford's trolleybuses terminated at Thornton.
Another Bradford trolley, no. 785, seen on the move in Thornton.
That's it for this post. Where next? Well, not Bradford (we'll come back there in the future). Anyway, here's the route so far.
