Embsay & Bolton Abbey restoring former Midland Railway carriages

This former Midland line in Yorkshire, operating part of the Skipton-Ilkley route, has a new project to restore two corridor coaches numbers, 238 and 241, from the very end of the Midland era in 1922.  Further details of the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway, their operating days and times, and of this and other projects, are available on their website.  Links to this and the websites of other heritage railways on former Midland lines can be found under Resources, Midland Railway Links,
