Earlsheaton to Batley Train Simulator 2022

Sometime in the 1960s. A journey on the ex Great Northern Line passing the closed Earlsheaton station and calling at Dewsbury Central and Batley.
Down by a 2 car DMU local service and returning on a summer Saturdays only Bradford to Cleethorpes service.

Didn't see the viaduct approaching batley Station that ran parallel with the union mills viaduct still standing today, demolished I think in the 90s leaving just the one still in use.

Amazing work this is incredible 👌🏻

[@stevenweasel2678]

VERY GOOD

[@pb3644]

Fantastic work, it might be worth adding some commentary pointing out the various locations along the route, otherwise excellent

[@Mittac001]

Looks great, from a Batley lad.

[@darleytransportandtravel6353]

Thank you.

[@lornabrooks3707]

Amazing animation skill! I'd like more info about the places the train passes too.

[@darleytransportandtravel6353]

Thank you so much. Some of it has to be a compromise as I don't have all the assets to make a perfect job, but it is reasonably accurate and creates a picture of this route and Batley station. The real thing is in the memory of fewer people as time goes by.

[@simonburton5945]

Looks very good. Has it been released?

[@darleytransportandtravel6353]

Thank you. Glad you like it. I have not as yet published any of my routes on Dovetail games train simulator if that is what you mean.

[@nigelkthomas9501]

Shame about the bloody weather, but that aside not bad.

[@darleytransportandtravel6353]

Well, at least the sun was shining on the way back. Maybe the outward journey was a bank holiday!

[@andyhayward8846]

Hi, do you have any simulator videos of Morley Top Station please?

[@darleytransportandtravel6353]

This is a route that I intend to be working on soon, but it all takes time. When I started I was just going to build The Leeds New Line around Mirfield, but I started spreading out further. I will continue the LNWR towards Morley Low digging out the tunnel and extend the GN through upper Batley to Adwalton Junction. From there I can build east towards East Ardsley and Tingley which will include Morley Top (GN). This will join up nicely with my line from Batley.
But as I say it is VERY time consuming.
