New Pudsey railway station is in Farsley, West Yorkshire, England, on the Calder Valley line from Leeds City to Bradford Interchange, Halifax, Huddersfield, Manchester Victoria, and Blackpool North. Lying 5.75mi west of Leeds, it serves as a commuter station for the western edge of the Leeds conurbation.This station opened by British Rail on 6 March 1967 and is located in Farsley about 1mi north-west of Pudsey town centre. It was opened as a 'new' station for Pudsey; there is no place called New Pudsey. The platforms are long enough to accommodate Intercity trains, and there is a large car park. It was originally served by occasional through trains from Bradford Interchange to London Kings Cross. However, after electrification of the East Coast Main Line, through services were routed via Shipley to Bradford Forster Square.
