The KWVR dedicated its timetable of 20th January 2013 to its pair of stalwarts - L&Y Class 0-6-0 No. 957 and Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T No. 41241 to mark their final day in traffic before withdrawal for overhaul. Sadly the plans were affected by a police decision to close the line in pursuance of a murder investigation resulting in No. 41241 being kept in Keighley until the line was re-opened. It was late afternoon when No. 41241 was able to make its first return leg to Oxenhope here seen leaving Oakworth in a cloud of exhaust.
