Cullingworth Railway Station
Cullingworth railway station was a station on the Queensbury Lines which ran between Keighley, Bradford and Halifax. The station served the village of Cullingworth, West Yorkshire, England. It opened for passengers in 1884 and closed in May 1955. Goods traffic continued until 1963, when the surviving line closed completely.
The station was about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from Wilsden railway station and was near to the 150-yard (140 m) long 9 arch Cullingworth Viaduct, which exists to this day.
