Peppercorn A1 4-6-2 No 60148 Aboyeur with the up 'Queen of Scots' climbing to Ardsley tunnel in the mid-1950s. It is leaving the outskirts of Leeds near Ardsley and is approaching Ardsley Tunnel but first will pass under the viaduct carrying the ex-GNR branch from Beeston to Batley via Woodkirk. This line closed in stages from October 1951 to June 1964. The embankment of this route and one of its occupation under-bridges is visible above the hedgerow on the right.
