Latest Updates ......
Friday 26th June (Main Line Shuttle Trains) TICKETING ARRANGEMENTS - UPDATE: Following feedback, we have decided that there will be a "mainline trains only" ticket for the above gala, which will allow travel on the KWVR Mainline steam / diesel shuttle trains between Keighley & Settle Junction. It will not allow travel on the evening Ribblehead excursion as this is fully reserved. The ticket is available from Keighley Station KWVR Ticket Office, or from the ticket inspector on the train. It is priced at £22. Thursday 25th June (Ribblehead Train) This service is now fully booked Monday 22nd June ('Ribblehead Special' Tickets) Due to overwhelming demand, we have managed to secure extra capacity on our Saturday evening Ribblehead Special Train. Tickets are limited and are likely to sell very quickly. Bookings for the new selection of tickets will commence 9am on Monday on 01535 645214. Be sure not to miss out again on this one off occasion!. Monday 22nd June (Diesel Locomotive) We understand that West Coast Railways locomotive No. 37.516 will be at the southern end of the main line services on Saturday and Sunday and will operate a fixed formation set with steam locomotive 'Leander' at the northern end.
