Video footage taken on May 14th 2000 during the KWVR's gala weekend. Visiting locomotive Furness Railway No.20, originally built in 1863, was the star of the show and is seen hauling two wooden-bodied Metropolitan Rly coaches on a Keighley to Ingrow shuttle service.
Other locomotives in action were:
Taff Vale Rly 0-6-2T Class O2 number 85.
BR 2-8-0 Class 8F number 48431
BR 2-6-0 Class 2MT number 78022
BR 0-4-0ST Class 0F number 51218
The video was filmed in the days before the backdrop to Keighley station was ruined by the construction of a mosque, ASDA supermarket and a new university building. Other scenic locations featured along the line have also been lost to new housing developments.
