Ingrow Loco<br />
Ingrow Loco is the Museum and Workshop of<br />
the Bahamas Locomotive Society. It tells a story<br />
of the steam locomotive and the people involved<br />
in its manufacture, operation, and maintenance.<br />
FREE admission with a WVR Day Rover ticket.<br />
The Museum exhibition has been created so<br />
you can explore how the steam locomotive<br />
functions, and how it was built - from the<br />
drawing board to the workshop and even to the publicity<br />
photograph. You will also discover how the steam locomotive has<br />
fascinated generations of children and adults alike through playing<br />
with model railways and even the real thing!<br />
Ingrow Museum of Rail Travel<br />
The Museum of Rail Travel is the award-winning Museum<br />
of the Vintage Carriages Trust. It is home to a Collection of<br />
beautifully-restored historic railway carriages, which have been<br />
used in over 60 television programmes and fi lms. Visitors may<br />
sit in the carriages and be transported back in time by the<br />
sound presentations, which help to bring the past to life. There<br />
are video presentations, as well as numerous signs, posters and<br />
exhibits within the Museum to keep you lost in time for hours.<br />

Would you like to become a volunteer on KWVR?<br />
We are very proud<br />
to say that we have<br />
operated and managed<br />
the <strong>Railway</strong> with qualifi ed<br />
volunteers since 1968,<br />
running Heritage trains<br />
every weekend and daily in<br />
school holidays. It takes up<br />
to 50 volunteers to run the <strong>Railway</strong> on every operating day:<br />
staff on the stations; the guards; the signalman; the footplate<br />
crew (Driver, Fireman and Cleaner); plus those on Civil<br />
Maintenance duties; the volunteers staffi ng and stocking the<br />
shops and buffets; and the administrative and engineering staff<br />
who you probably won’t even see during your visit.<br />
On the day, there is a Driver and Fireman, together they<br />
control the steam locomotive. There may also be a Diesel train<br />
in use, which also needs a Driver. Why not sit behind him and<br />
watch how he uses the controls along the line?
