Ingrow (West) Railway Station - The Station Today

The Station Today

The station (off South Street, Ingrow) is the first scheduled stop on the line from Keighley railway station. The Vintage Carriages Trust has its Museum of Rail Travel which opened in 1990 next to the station. The station is home to the Bahamas Locomotive Society and its collection of locomotives. The society runs the 'Ingrow Loco' museum in the former goods shed, which has been extended to create workshop space for the overhaul of its collection of locomotives. The gates at the entrance to Ingrow West are from the former Great Northern Goods Yard in Keighley, which is now Nelsons Builders Merchant.

Ingrow had a second station, Ingrow (East), which served the Great Northern Railway's Queensbury Lines to Bradford and Halifax.

    With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)
