19 miles away from Grassington, in Keighley.
Keighley & Worth Valley Railway is a restored 5-mile
branch line which joins the national railway network
at Keighley and runs up the Worth Valley to Haworth.
Steam train services operate every weekend throughout
the year and daily in summer.
There are six restored gas-lit stations, a fleet of
steam locomotives and historic carriages, a Museum of
Rail Travel at Ingrow, buffets at Keighley and Oxenhope
and a CAMRA real ale bar on many trains.
There are picnic areas at Keighley, Haworth and Oxenhope.
The KWVR station at Oakworth was the location for
the 1970 film 'The Railway Children'.
Timetables & Fares:
It's a tad complicated. Train services operate on about
200 days each year, but to different timetables. See
