Keighley & Worth Valley Railway

Just done an updating job on the Keighley & Worth Valley Gallery – and added a bunch of pictures from 2003 and 2004.

I've been scanning up more old slides - this time some taken during the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway's Spring Gala in 1983.

It's strange.  I must have been there, because here's the slides!  But I have no recollection whatsoever of the day out.  My wife thinks I'm going mad in my old age.  She must be right, and this is the proof.

A really long day. Out at 4.30am, to Ken's house at 6.30am to pick him and Simon up, fight through the West Yorkshire traffic to arrive at Ingrow at 8.30am, half an hour late.

Needn't have worried, no sign of the loco and time for a bacon sarnie and tea. Eventually the loco arrived - but no train. So off to Keighley to pick up some wagons.

More hanging around - first shot of the day at 10.08am. Could have had another hour and a half in bed...
