I can see little justification for this railway having a separate article. It was only in existence for less than three years; it then became part of the M&LR - which does not have an article, since the existing one, for no apparent reason that I can see, was moved to become the L&YR!!!! - which then became part of the L&YR. The L&YR was itself the amalgamation of a large number of constituent railways, only one of which was the AS&LJR. I am sure that the majority of the others do without an article - so why this one?

The AS&LJR was an important line, forming part of the present day principal line between Manchester and Leeds. A number of things have changed since the above commentary was written: the M&LR does have its own article. Contrary to the assertion above, the AS&LJR didn't become part of the M&LR. In 1847 the L&YR was formed from two existing railways, the M&LR and this one; a third constituent was under construction and had not been opened.
