Time for Traction
Across the Festival weekend, they’ll be different traction carrying passengers and hauling special brewery trains.
While every effort will be made to ensure that the advised motive power is available, the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway reserves the right to change this when operational circumstances dictate.
The DMU 144011 will be in service on Thursday, running hourly shuttles and stopping at each station. 5820 & 37075 will run across the weekend, with Class 37 hauling the early services.
Along with our current home fleet, Ian Rileys 44871 LMS Stanier Class 5 is expected to visit KWVR in October, while our 45212 ‘Black 5’ stays on hire with Riley & Sons hauling The Jacobite. 75078 BR Class 4 is nearing the end of overhaul and is expected to be in service for the Beer & Music Weekend
