A little history
The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway — a 4.5-mile branch line — was saved by volunteers in 1968 and became famous when it starred in The Railway Children (1970). The line runs to Haworth, home of the Brontë sisters. The town grew as a worsted textile centre in the 19th century.
The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway is genuinely excellent — steam trains to Haworth and Oxenhope. Haworth village for the Brontë Parsonage Museum. The Worth Valley countryside for walking.
