In addition there was to be a direct connection from a junction at Adwick to Doncaster. The main line would be 21 miles 40 chains in extent. The junction near Stainforth was Haggs Wood Junction, (shifted to Stainforth later), in a district known as Barnby upon Don. The Doncaster branch was 4 miles 32 chains in length; its destiny as part of a main line from Doncaster was already evident, for the

coal traffic on 18 May 1908. The same Act permitted the construction of an east curve at Adwick junction. This left the
Doncaster line 16 chains north-west of Carcroft & Adwick-le-Street station and ran for half-a-mile to Skellow junction on the Stainforth line. It was opened for goods traffic on 18 January 1909. Although installed mainly for goods traffic, there were some summer excursions, and for a time there was a Saturdays only train for

Leeds and the surrounding district was a major centre of importance to the GNR, and to enable its trains to reach it, the GNR had to make agreements with other, competing, lines, and to run by a rather roundabout route via

Yorkshire Railway (as the BW&LR had become), for the joint use of the Midland Railway, WYR, MS&LR, and SYR, all of which subscribed to its cost. The new station was in use on 1 May 1867. A new goods station, joint with the Midland Railway and the MS&LR was opened alongside on 1 July 1868.

Three additions were made to the West Riding and
Grimsby line during the period 1900-1922. The first to be completed was the 11-mile Brodsworth colliery branch from Castle Hills junction 2 miles north-west of Doncaster. It was authorized by the Great Central Railway Act of 26 July 1907 and opened for

The
Wakefield Westgate station had been opened by the Bradford, Wakefield and Leeds Railway, with limited facilities as a wayside station. It was plain that it needed to be improved, and the WR&GR obtained an Act on 23 June 1864 authorising a new station at Westgate. It was to be located on the

The GNR and the MS&LR jointly opened the

A station had been built at Barnby Dun on the Adwick junction to

The GNR had repeatedly submitted parliamentary bills seeking authorisation for its own Doncaster to Wakefield line, and these had repeatedly been thrown out; the most recent was in 1861. Now in that year a new company was promoted, to be called the West Riding and Grimsby Railway, and in the 1862

The inspecting officer was Captain Tyler; he was dissatisfied on his inspection of the line in November 1865, but improvements were made in time for his second inspection on 29 December 1865 and he approved the line for passenger operation then. The line opened on 1 February 1866.
