I took this photo on Wednesday 3rd January 1979. This was at Hoo Hole, Cragg Road, Mytholmroyd. I used Kodachrome 25 slide film in my Rollei B35 camera.
Leaving Mytholmroyd with a service for Leeds on 12 July 2017 is this very smart unbranded Sprinter of Northern, a DB company.
A Mytholmroyd CC batsman giving nothing away in his team's innings of 277-7 vs. Sowerby St. Peters CC, in the scenic Calder Valley.
Running towards Mytholmroyd on a Calder Valley service is Class 150 No. 150270. The Sprinter units will be on this route for some time to come. She has just passed Luddendenfoot and I was playing with my new 300 mmm telephoto lens.
This pub used to be one of my favourite watering holes. It had the best juke box in the Calder Valley until it was, sadly, closed in the mid 1970's.
Workmen have now completed the restoration of the exterior of Mytholmroyd station, in the Calder Valley. Specialists were employed who knew about historic buildings. It had been increasingly derelict since the station was reduced to an unstaffed halt in the 1960s. The interior, where once you climbed up stairs to reach the platform (you can just see the platform canopy) will be used for community and business purposes, but is not quite complete.
Route: 590
Halifax - Mytholmroyd - Hebden Bridge - Todmorden - Walsden - Littleborough - Rochdale
Note: Working from Todmorden Depot.
Since I was last here a little over a year ago the only remaining roof truss has swung around, its last few supporting beams having fallen. It's taken a fairly big chunk out of the wall on the left higher up. I doubt it will last out the year, there's very little holding it up now. Sad to see this majestic old place crumbling away. Excuse the inaccurate EXIF, I forgot to change the lens profile. This was taken with my Samyang 8mm f2.8, distortion corrected with Fisheye Hemi.
Making its stop at Mytholmroyd is a Manchester-Leeds train worked by No. 150203, nicely concealing the scaffolding and protective cladding around the old L and Y booking hall, which is being rebuilt.

Why is it that the more "modern" the railways become, that more older locos appear? Hey, I'm not complaining!!! 37516 and 33207 head west through Mytholmroyd on the Calder Valley route with the return "Scarborough Spa Express" .
Class 60 No 60011 rushes through the platforms at Mytholmroyd station with the 8.07 Euston-Sheffield-Euston "Pennine Panorama" charter. Struggled to get the winter sun in the upper Calder Valley,much of the line in shadow during the late afternoon,(big hills&big trees!) Nov 10th 2012.
Testing my new 55-200 lens this afternoon I was lucky to catch this chappy before he flew off as I was quite close.
The former Mytholmroyd West signal box located by the Up Main line at the Yorkshire end of Mytholmroyd railway station. Wednesday 16th September 1987
Mytholmroyd Station signal box was a Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Company standard design fitted with a 64 lever Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Company Tappet frame that opened in 1904 replacing an 1875-built signal box. The signal box was renamed Mytholmroyd West in 1919 after an additional signal box opened named Mytholmroyd East 829 yards away. The signal box closed on 12th May 1985 along with Sowerby Bridge West signal box when the absolute block section was extended to between Milner Royd Junction and Hebden Bridge signal boxes although rising traffic levels in the 2000s necessitated the commissioning of intermediate block signals. The signal box remained in situ for a while but by mid-September 1987 the lever frame had been removed and the signal box was being demolished
