Most cities have bits of abandoned railway but the tracks are normally missing and everything else has been trashed. I did a week looking round the abandoned railways of Leeds, some were easier to get onto than others but all were very interesting and NOT live.

There is something about old railways I love. Visited and explored with squirrel68


This small section of overgrown railway was a direct link to the main line from Bradford. Closed back in the 1980s

This next bit is a giant viaduct that runs for over mile above the city, most don't know it's an abandoned railway.
