Title
Mytholmroyd Station - Platform support brackets - LYR00202
Description
LYRS 6063 - 1962. The platforms not only ran the length of the viaduct but also overhung it supported by these massive iron brackets. Not entirely without incidents:
"A few months ago a large flagstone dropped out of the platform at Mytholmroyd Station, which is high above the main road. A similar occurrence took place on Monday, when a portion of the platform several feet square of stone and macadam dropped into the road over 20ft belowā€¯. (Halifax Courier & Guardian 10/03/1934)
