Ingrow Loco and the Bahamas Society



Ingrow station on the KWVR houses both the vintage carriage trust's museum of stream travel and the Bahamas societies Railway Centre
The museums (off South Street A629) are adjacent to Ingrow (West) railway station on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, a five-mile long heritage railway which serves Keighley, Ingrow, Damems, Oakworth, Haworth and Oxenhope.



The museum houses some of our collection, and at present includes two of our steam locomotives LNWR Coal Tank and Tiny.  Here also, is an interpretive exhibition of aspects of railway history, primarily the steam locomotive.
The Workshop provides for the maintenance and overhaul of  locomotives and rolling stock.
The Museum exhibition, created and produced entirely by the societies volunteers, is currently open on all days when the Keighley & Worth Valley are running trains.  This includes most weekends throughout the year, and weekdays during the summer.

My thanks to Ingrow Loco for the above, visit them at  Visit our Museum Website
