Annually, in September, we have a week devoted to repairing our track and civil infrastructure. Occasionally we need to extend this if the repair job is too big to complete in a week! This September is one of those occasions, as we need three weeks to complete work to eradicate the landslips that threaten the area around ‘Ebor Lane Bridge’ near Haworth (the bridge made famous at the end of The Railway Children film).
With the line severed north of Haworth Station, accordingly we will be operating a revised but varied timetable:
