{{Unreferenced section|date=August 2020}}
Passenger train services are operated by [[Northern (train operating company)|Northern]] and run on the following pattern:

* [[Bradford Interchange]]–Halifax–{{stnlnk|Huddersfield}} ([[British Rail Class 150|Class 150]] and occasionally [[British Rail Class 158|Class 158]] )
* Leeds–{{rws|Dewsbury}}–[[Manchester Victoria railway station|Manchester Victoria]]–[[Wigan Wallgate railway station|Wigan Wallgate]] ([[British Rail Class 158|Class 158]] and occasionally [[British Rail Class 195|Class 195 ''Civity'']])
* Leeds–Halifax–Manchester Victoria–{{rws|Chester}} ([[British Rail Class 195|Class 195]] ''Civity'')
* York–Leeds–Halifax–Preston–Blackpool North ([[British Rail Class 195|Class 195 ''Civity'']])
* {{stnlnk|Blackburn}}–Burnley–{{stnlnk|Todmorden}}–Manchester Victoria ([[British Rail Class 150|Class 150]] or [[British Rail Class 156|156]])
* {{stnlnk|Halifax|West Yorkshire}}–Bradford Interchange–Leeds–Hull ([[British Rail Class 158|Class 158]])

This line, along with the [[Huddersfield line]] and York and Selby lines, was in the past combined in national timetables to show a coast-to-coast service but since May 2018 has been split again into separate routes for operational reasons and to improve service reliability. Through running to Chester (with a limited peak provision to {{rws|Ellesmere Port}} via Helsby) began in May 2019.

Services within West Yorkshire are sponsored by [[West Yorkshire Metro]], whose tickets (including Metrocards) can be used up to [[Hebden Bridge railway station|Hebden Bridge]] between Leeds and Blackpool, and [[Walsden railway station|Walsden]] between Leeds and Manchester.
