SNOW TRAIN - THE GOODS MUST GET THROUGH
Volunteers of the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway showed their true mettle when heavy snow and freezing temperatures threatened their Spring Steam Gala. All volunteers battled with treacherous road conditions to reach the Worth Valley Railway in order to defrost frozen points, clear snow away from station platforms and grit car parks to allow the locomotive and train crews run the planned timetable. On Saturday 11th March 2023 a demonstration freight train was operated, seen here climbing towards Oakworth, headed by LMS 'Black Five' locomotive 45212.
