A Day With An LNWR Gem Keighley & Worth Valley Railway 17/01/2026

Hello & Welcome to Harnetty Railways

In this video we have our 1st visit of the year to our friends on The Keighley & Worth Valley Railway during their cream timetable operations.

The locomotive operating during our visit was The Bahamas Locomotive Society's LNWR Webb Coal tank 1054 which is normally works on the line during special events & working the railway's vintage trains stock.

However a chance of seeing her working a normal passenger service was a golden opportunity not to be missed.

The wreath she was wearing on the day of our visit was in tribute to Brian A Baker the former chairman of the railway between 1972 & 1979 sadly passed away in December 2025.

Us at Harnetty Railways sends our love, thoughts & condolences to Brian's family & to the railway at the very difficult time & this video is dedicated in Brian's memory.

We start this video at Keighley as we see 1054 running round her train in readiness for the 1st steam hauled departure of the day from Keighley.

Here we join her on board her train for the run to Oxenhope.

This was actually a rerun of the ill fated on board filming from 2023 during the railway's LMS 100 Steam Gala in the middle of a heavy snow shower at the time.

Now 3 years later in 2026 & in much more weather better conditions the on board filming behind 1054 can finally be laid to rest.

After the on board action the rest of the day was mostly focusing on lineside locations south & north of Haworth which is were we end this video.

Thanks for reading enjoy the film.
