context_page_description: Pontefract Baghill railway station is the least busy of the three railway stations in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, England. The other stations, Monkhill and Tanshelf, both lie on the Pontefract Line, while Baghill lies on the Dearne Valley Line 21 ¹⁄₄ miles south of York towards Sheffield.
context_section_description: The low level of usage can be attributed to there being only six trains each day (four on Sundays), three serving the station northbound to York and three southbound to Sheffield, at times that are not favourable to commuters.  Furthermore, the neighbouring cities of Leeds and Wakefield cannot be reached by direct services from the station.
  From the May 2019 timetable change, an additional service in each direction has been introduced on Mondays to Saturdays (15:37 northbound to York, 17:49 southbound to Sheffield).
