Keighley & Worth Valley Railway

7 miles away from Skipton, 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'.
