Just a query - is this the old "Royal Gardens" station, built, I think, to serve the old Zoological Gardens?

I owe you an apology here. My posting of "Leeds Woodside" has now been amended to that of Horsforth Woodside which was a short-lived railway station that was closed as early as 1864.

After the currently opened Burley Park was the now-closed Cardigan Road Goods Station, which cannot be used on this quiz, as it had never handled passenger traffic.

Then came Royal Gardens which was built to serve the Leeds Zoological and Botanical Gardens. That station was closed circa 1859, though some records show special services running until 1864.

Then your posting of Holbeck Low Level is the next one to complete this line.

[Interesting, that. Thank you for the information. I'd heard there was a plan for WY Metro to open a station at Horsforth Woodside - I didn't realise it was to re-open it!]
