Customers have been so pleased with a steam railway dining train that a waiting list has had to be established to keep bookings on track.

Bosses at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway say that interest in their Mother's Day luncheon train was so great that every place was sold within weeks of being advertised.

Chief steward Derek Smith said: "We could have filled the train twice over. We are now taking customers details and giving them priority on our forthcoming dining trains.

"Many customers tell us that our White Rose Pullman dining trains offer a standard of service superior to the famous Orient Express and our repeat bookings seem to reflect this. One customer has travelled with us for 11 years."
