Notes
  1. Of those passengers do they have a split of traveling to Bradford, Leeds, and Skipton?
  2. Note 65,000 increase 2014 to 2015 at Steeton and Silsden and decrease at Ilkley.
  3. Is this attributable to the new houses completed in the area, if so roughly if all 1,900 are built (in this area) it could take the usage above 1,200,000 pro rata.
