Keighley and Worth Valley Railway 40th Anniversary Steam Gala Weekend
27th June 2008 to 29th June 2008

A selection of photographs taken on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway 40th Anniversary Steam Gala from 27th to 29th June 2008. It rained for most of Friday, but I did get a few photographs, On Saturday services were only allowed between Haworth and Keighley as the WCR's BR Class 47 derailed at Oxenhope. Then on the Saturday Evening Ribblehead Dining Train Ex-Southern Railway King Arthur Class No. 30777, 'Sir Lamiel) failed and so the main line services that did run on Sunday were behind WCR's BR Class 37/0, No. 37248. On Sunday apart from one heavy shower it was another fine day.
