Poor light and mist hampered the successful photographic recording of the first train to call at the new Apperley Bridge station on the morning on December 13.

The historic occasion can just about be seen here, with Northern Rail's 333013, forming the slightly late running 0842 to Bradford Foster Square (ex Leeds at 0831), about to depart from the station’s staggered westbound platform. The previous station at this location closed on March 29 1965.
