    Hi all
    I am planning a first-ever visit to the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway for their February Gala, and would be grateful for any advice on the best photo-spots, and also details regarding lineside permits, etc

    Cheers

    Keighley bank is the obv place and there is a side st on the bank that is popular during galas, though a lot of people walk up the head shunt.

    There's some good spots either side of Oakworth too, either the bank just before the stn or the other side of the crossing where you get good shots of the locos leaving. There's either further round on the curve after the mill on this side of the crossing, bit of a walk but you still get a decent shot.

    Not too sure about lineside passes however, just know they are available. Usually leave me dad to sort it out for me if I do go, no point in tiring myself out lol

    No problem, happy to help!

    Very photogenic line the Worth Valley, and at galas an intensive service prevents boredom.
