Horsforth Woodside railway station

Horsforth Woodside is a proposed railway station to be built on the site of Woodside Quarry near Horsforth in West Yorkshire, England. It would be located on the Harrogate Line near the extant Horsforth station which would also stay open. Horsforth Woodside was a very early station on the Leeds-Nothallerton railway, but was closed completely in 1864. The fact that both this old closed station and the proposed new station share the same name is a matter known to cause confusion when railway historical matters in this area are being discussed. The proposed station would serve a proposed housing development at the former Woodside Quarry as well as providing a park and ride service in to Leeds city centre.

Timetable constraints mean that it is unlikely the station would be open until 2014. A turn-back facility is proposed for Horsforth station, which if approved would be available in 2012 and so construction of this station can take place.
