Batley station has a new look and feel thanks to good teamwork and an army of volunteers. It’s revival was celebrated in style of Friday 27 May with senior managers from Northern (new rail operator, Arriva) the mayor and local councillors on hand.
Friends of Batley Station (Twitter @FOBS_Batley) played an important part in the upgrading of this important gateway to the town. So did PPG, a paints and coatings business with a base at Birstall. The revamped

station includes a Batley mural and community space.
