Well I'm a little uncertain as to whether it's Hunslet or Hunslet Lane - I think the former.

I think you're right - As far as I know, Hunslet Lane was originally the terminus of the North Midland Railway, and then became a goods station when the line was extended through to Leeds [Wellington]- either way it was on what is now a separate branch.

But wasn't there Holbeck Low Level before Hunslet?

And, after Hunslet, I think was Methley.

If I could award a bonus point for this connectional link between these two lines (never done before on this quiz), I would award one for this posting.
