It’s Tuesday once again, and that means another look at one of our visits to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway.

We resume the action at Damems, where we see 45596 Bahamas arrive with a service to Oxenhope, this loco is owned by the Bahamas Locomotive Society and was wearing their headboard for this service.

We then head see 5820 Big Jim and 43924 arrive and depart from the station. Both of these locos are not in services at the moment due to awaiting an overhaul. We also see the duo between Ingrow West and Damems at a lineside location.

Not long after we got back to the station did we find 45596 Bahamas returning from Oxenhope, along with visiting GWR Prairie No. 4144. This locomotive was visiting the railway from the Didcot Railway Centre.

Ingrow West is home to the Bahamas Locmotive Society and Vintage Carriages Trust, both of which have a museum to visit that is free with a rover ticket.

Next, the shuttle to Keighley shunted out of the sidings, with Standard 2 78022 in charge.

WIth the shuttle back at Keighley, it would allow 43924 to pass through Ingrow West with a freight train, bound for Damems.

On the rear of the freight train was Standard 2 No. 78022, which would haul the return train back to Keighley.

In quick succession was 4144, which was hauling the afternoon express train. This wooshed through Ingrow West non-stop, making for an excellent view.

We then head down to Keighley, where we see 45212 departing with the shuttle to Ingrow West. On the rear of the shuttle was 43924.

The next part of the video will be live next Tuesday
