| Description |
English: Site of the former Abbey Light Railway (2) The Abbey Light Railway was a 2-foot gauge privately operated line, only about 400m in length, connecting the main road near Kirkstall Bridge to the edge of the grounds of Kirkstall Abbey. It ran from 1976 to 2012, when its founder, Peter Lowe, died. The line was dismantled in 2013 and the stock acquired by various other railways including Ripon District Light Railway, Yorkshire Dales Railway, Poppleton Nurseries Railway and the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway at Porthmadog. The corner of a stone wall seen here, one of very few remaining signs of the railway, is probably part of the foundation of the loco shed seen in SE2635 : Kirkstall light railway in 2007 when the railway was still operational. Within a few years of closure the site is already becoming overgrown. |
