Another excellent video in the series Adrian. Just a little bit of info. When you come out of the station and walk down to John William Street, you will see Lion Chambers facing you, it has a lion on the roof. The original lion was made of Coade Stone, a man made stone, made in London. There is a Coade Stone lion on the south bank of the River Thames, near the old County Hall. The statue of the lion in Huddersfield, is, I believe, a fibreglass replica.
Well I must say that transpennine route upgrade's beginning to come along quite nciely, I'm also still certain the line will become electrified as part of the upgrade.

@@barrywa39 I'm definitely going to keep that in my mind 😉
@@adrianadamson I keep coming out with all these facts, and snippets of info.

Yes I do believe they are electrifying the line. They are building new road bridges to go over the track to be able to fit the electrification.
Stations in this clip are in fact Deighton and Huddersfielld.
Thank you for commenting John I do appreciate it so much
