With the River Aire close to bursting its banks and train tracks submerged under water, passengers at Kirkstall Forge Station had to turn to replacement buses for their daily commute.
National Rail has said that disruptions between Leeds and Harrogate, Shipley and Ilkley are expected until 6pm tonight (January 2), as a result of the flooding.
Here are 13 pictures showing the extent of the flooding in Kirkstall:
