Wharfedale Rail Users' Group on The Ilkley Pages at www.ilkley.org

The Group exists to promote the interests of rail users, and to lobby for improvements to services or passenger facilities as appropriate.

Please read our new 2007 Newsletter (see below) to get an update of what is happening on our Line and the actions we want to see taken to improve all our journeys.

We are always interested in hearing the views of users. Please feel free to send any comment on what we are or are not doing for our users or how you would like to see the train service and facilities improved, to our secretary Peter Johnson

Peter can also be contacted on +44 (0)1943 609142,
