A fantastic, traditional family day out in the heart of Yorkshire!

Climb aboard Yorkshire's Great Little Steam Trains for a scenic journey through the beautiful South Pennine Foothills from Clayton West to Shelley Station.

Built on the historic standard-gauge Clayton West branch line, the Kirklees Light Railway is a popular tourist attraction featuring real steam and diesel engines, outdoor playgrounds, a miniature ride-on railway, a cafe, tea room, large free car park, ice cream counter, a gift/toy shop and special events and experiences throughout the year. Great value annual passes are available too!

The KLR is usually open to the public on weekends, Bank Holidays and local school holidays, with special toddler/preschooler days on selected Mondays and Fridays.
