Couldn't find any mention of this elsewhere, apologies if I missed something.
This narrow gauge line on the trackbed of the former Clayton West branch has (with seemingly little publicity) rebranded itself in the last few weeks. Indeed despite living near to one of the intermediate stops the first I heard of this rebrand was the maps on the inside of a Team Pennine bus!
I had previously grumbled about the previous name, as "Kirklees" is an invented name for the local authority rather than anything locals actually use to describe the geographic area. Indeed the name comes from Kirklees Hall which is actually in neighbouring Calderdale. However they've managed to come up with something even more cringeworthy than the previous name!
