I had my great nephew for 6 hours on Sunday the 28th, he's train mad,so we pushed the boat out and did 2 round trips on KWVR, also Haworth park,cafe on the bridge, Ingrow carriage works,whistle stop run round ,even bought a toy train,cos boy was well behaved .
Visited on November 14th. The smallest of the two museums at Ingrow, but no less enjoyable. As we stepped in from the rain we were welcomed warmly, and as we headed into the museum area, the smell of steam engines was a very pleasant sensation. It was nice and relaxing to sit on the upstairs balcony, which had both steps and a lift. The old signs on the walls, as well as a peek into the workshop from where we sat, kept us occupied for a while. For those who enjoy old railway books, there were plenty on offer in the main museum area for bargain prices - I bought a book on Class 40s. Will be coming again one day to bring my grandma, same as the Carriage Works nearby!
The smaller of the 2 museums at Ingrow West station. There were lots of small artifacts on display with information about where they came from provided. There were also 2 steam engines on display, with another being worked on in the area of the shed that was not for public access. There was also a small gift shop available selling a range of merchandise including DVDs and magazines related to the railway.
One of two museums at Ingrow Station. Costs £6 to get into both museums or a few quid just to get into one. This one is small but worth a visit. A few steam trains inside, a workshed and various train related artefacts on the walls etc. Nice museum.
A little smaller than the other museums at Ingrow. Nice artefacts and engines.
