Popular blues performer Emily Druce, pictured, returns to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway next month.

The acoustic singer and musician will perform in the real-ale buffet car as it is pulled up and down the line by a diesel locomotive.

Emily, from Holmfirth, regularly performs locally, both on the railway and Haworth venues.

She can be seen on Saturday, July 6 on a train that departs Oxenhope station at 7.30pm and calls at all the stations on the line.

A railway spokesman says music trains have this year offered an eclectic range of performers.

He adds: "We're delighted to welcome Emily back for the third in our season of live music specials.

"If her last performance on the railway is anything to go by, it will be a memorable evening with the best female acoustic blues singer in the country."

Emily performs tomorrow at Hebden Bridge Trades Club, followed on Sunday afternoon by modern jazz group Dave Van Gelder Quartet.
