Keighley & Worth Valley Railway.

[Swiss Toni]

A quick trip to the K.&W.V.R. on Sunday where the weather turned out to be a mixed bag, ie crap in the morning and better in the afternoon.

The first services of the day are usually carried out by diesels and then steam from mid morning on.

This is the "Waggon und Maschinenbau" railbus, first introduced to the UK circa 1958 and it's a little gem.

BR Standard Class 4 No. 80002

Ivatt 2-6-2 No. 41241

and finally the Worth Valley with Keighley in the distance. (damn those power lines!)

A nice set - I'm presuming a lineside pass is needed for the locations in the first three?

You first need to be a member which is £18pa and includes three free day rover tickets a year and half price travel at most other times. Then you can apply for a photo permit which is £16pa.

I know you're good at this! I've seen lots of your shots on here.

But personally I just don't like the last one, there just isn't any real subject. Maybe it's me, I wouldn't argue the point too much. Sorry Stuart.
