Welcome to the Ingrow Loco Museum Website Only recently revised, the site will continue to develop over the coming months
Ingrow Loco Museum is housed in the former Midland Railway goods warehouse at Ingrow Station on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway in West Yorkshire.
Since 1990, volunteer members of the 'Bahamas' Locomotive Society have transformed the original building into two distinct areas. The Museum houses our collection of items of railway interest - which at present includes two of our steam locomotives Nunlow and Tiny. The Workshop provides for the maintenance and overhaul of our locomotives and rolling stock. The Museum exhibition has been created and produced entirely by our own volunteers and is currently open on all days when the Keighley & Worth Valley are running trains. This includes most Saturdays and weekdays, Bank Holiday weekends, and Sundays throughout the year. Visitors to the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway who hold a Rover Ticket can gain access to the Museum free of charge, otherwise a small entrance fee of £1.50 is payable for adults. Accompanied children are free. 
The Society was formed in 1967 with the aim of purchasing and maintaining in working order the former LMS Railway 'Jubilee' class steam locomotive No.45596 Bahamas. We subsequently established the Dinting Railway Centre in Derbyshire - as a working museum to house Bahamas and our ever-growing collection of locomotives and rolling stock - before we relocated our operations to Ingrow. We are registered as a Charity for educational purposes, for we continue to aspire to help explain the role of the steam locomotive in the development of this country and its people. We welcome all help and assistance to maintain and operate Ingrow Loco, and our locomotives. If you wish to support our aims, membership of the Society is available.
