A busy station considering its size. Theres the Bradford and Leeds EMS from Skipton (mainly 333) and there are a few freight trains every day which are mainly class 60s and 66, probably around 10 frieghts on a good day Theres a few 144, 142,150, 153, 180, among otheres. doing the Carlise run.
Overall plently to do.
If you go at a weekend or school holiday you can go on the Worth Valley line, its £12 for a day rover or £8 full line return, plenty to see on the KWVR, they have steam and desiel events. There is enough to satisfy everyone here, overall a good station.

The proceeding review failed to mention that that the T&T 37's ceased since Sept 2004

Keighley lies on the Skipton - Leeds/Bradford route which mainly sees 333 EMUs along with DMUs on the Morecambe/Carlisle services. There is a out and back T&T 37 working to Carlise each weekday. Freight passes through mainly Gypsum and coal with 60s or 66s hauling them. The Keighley & Worth Valley railway uses the station too.
The town centre is only a few minutes walk away.
