Keighley & Worth Valley Railway
DMU M79964 at OxenhopeAlthough the railway isn’t having any special events, we at RailAdvent are hoping to make a visit, and will be coming live from the railway.
So if you want to see the railway from the comfort of your own home, we will be starting around 9am and will be taking lots of photos throughout the day.
If you see us, don’t forget to say “Hello”.
We hope you can join us for the day, either at home, or at the railway!
