Burley-in-Wharfedale railway station serves the village of Burley in Wharfedale in West Yorkshire, England, in the City of Bradford. The station lies on the Wharfedale Line between Ilkley and Leeds/Bradford Forster Square. It is served by Class 333 units run by Northern Trains, who also manage the station.
It was opened in 1865 and is located on the Otley and Ilkley Joint Railway (and thus run by both the Midland Railway and the North Eastern Railway), Script error: No such module "convert". east of Ilkley. The station is unstaffed (and has been so since October 1968) and was once the junction for the line to Leeds via Template:Rws. This route closed in 1965, as a result of the Beeching Axe.[1] The station building still stands, but is now privately owned.
In February and March 2022, tactile paving was installed along both platform edges.[2]
There are plans for the platforms to be extended to allow for 6 carriage trains.[3]
Facilities
Though unstaffed (as noted), the station does have a self-service ticket machine in place to allow passengers to buy before boarding; this can also be used to collect advance purchase tickets. Waiting shelters are provided on both platforms, which are linked by footbridge (step-free access is however possible to both via nearby streets). Train running information is offered via customer information screens, automated announcements and timetable posters.[4]
Services
During Monday to Saturday daytimes services run to/from Template:Stnlink twice-hourly and hourly to Template:Stnlink and there are three services every hour to Template:Stnlink (an extra Bradford to Ilkley train each way per hour runs at peak time). During Monday to Saturday evenings and all day Sundays, services are hourly to/from both Leeds and Bradford Forster Square and there are two departures per hour to Ilkley.[5]
