Ingrow Museum of Rail Travel, based at the first station from Keighley on the Worth Valley Railway, is run by a volunteer body called the Vintage Carriages Trust, and exhibits some beautifully restored railway carriages that have been used in over 50 TV and film productions, such as ‘The Railway Children'!
Sit in the carriages and imagine what rail travel used to be like, or pretend that you are a film star! Sound and video presentations help to bring the past to life and there are numerous signs, posters and small exhibits. It is really interesting to see how the different vintage carriages have changed over time, and also to see which TV and film stars have actually used the carriages during filming!
Combine a visit to the museum with a trip on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, using a Green Rover ticket, to experience steam railway travel for real, making this an great day out for families. Please be aware that there are 2 museums in Ingrow Station Yard, this one can be found 22m from Ingrow Station, at the end of the yard.
