Without the DMU standing at platform 2 this could easily be mistaken for a disused station, rather than the run down Wakefield Kirkgate in the early stages of refurbishment. Since the shot was taken the all over canopy at the out of bounds east end, plus most of that along platform 3 to the left, has been removed. This work was completed prior to demolition of a large part of the spine wall that once supported the overall station roof. See image 34147
