- Whistlestop Valley, formerly the Kirklees Light Railway, is a visitor attraction featuring a 3+1⁄2-mile (5.6 km) long 15 in (381 mm) gauge minimum gauge railway. The attraction's main site is in the village of Clayton West in Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England which was first opened to the public on 19 October 1991, with a second, smaller site in a rural area near the village of Shelley. The railway at Whistlestop Valley runs along the trackbed of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway's former branch line, from Clayton West via Skelmanthorpe to Shelley Woodhouse (a few yards close to the former Clayton West Junction 1⁄2 mile (0.8 km), near Shepley) on the Penistone line from Huddersfield to Sheffield via Penistone and Barnsley. From 1991 to 2021 the attraction was known as the Kirklees Light Railway. In June 2021, the attraction rebranded under the name Whistlestop Valley but retains the name Kirklees Light Railway for its 15 inch railway operation. (en)
- Kirklees Light Railway (Ferrovia Leve de Kirklees) é uma linha de trem de bitola reduzida de 15 polegadas (381 mm), que se estende por 5.6 km (3.5 milhas) e fica em Kirklees, West Yorkshire, no norte de Inglaterra. Abriu pela primeira vez a 19 de Outubro de 1991 e percorre o traçado que já pertenceu à ferrovia de Lancashire & Yorkshire. Este ramal ligava a vila de Clayton West até à linha de Penistone (entre Huddersfield e Sheffield, via Penistone e Barnsley), pela atualmente descativada junção de Clayton West. O percurso atual liga a vila de Clayton West à vila de Shelley Woodhouse, ficando a apenas alguns metros da linha ainda activa, passando pela localidade de Skelmanthorpe. (pt)
