Historic engine coming to Keighley railway

12:25pm Tuesday 24th January 2012 in Keighley

Train buffs are expected from across the UK to see a little engine running up the Worth Valley next month. The return to operation of the 134-year-old Coal Tank locomotive could pull crowds to Keighley’s winter steam gala which runs from February 10 to 12. The loco is owned by the National Trust, and has been overhauled by the Ingrow-based Bahamas Locomotive Society. Designated London & North Western Railway No 1054, it recently re-entered service on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway.
