More about this scene
The railway cuts a swathe through Halifax, yet given the town's importance, there was a sense of outrage when the Manchester & Leeds Railway bypassed the town with no connecting branch line built. A branch line was promised as early as 1841, but until July 1844 the only way manufacturers could get their products to a rail-head was by horse and cart to Elland station.
