Keighley 2nd
(1883 - )
Keighley 2nd station is located on the Airedale Line 17 miles (27 km) north west of Leeds and is also the northern terminus for the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (KWVR) to Oxenhope
KWVR is a now heritage branch-line railway run by volunteers that was originally built by the Midland Railway and opened in 1867. Closed to passenger traffic in 1962, it was reopened by
the K&WVR Preservation Society six years later and is now a popular tourist attraction
The KWVR has its own ticket office and access ramps from the shared main entrance to platforms 3 and 4. They also have a refreshment stand and bookstall on platform 4, which is open
when the railway is operating daily during the summer and at weekends in other seasons
