When is the railway open for rides?
The railway is operated to give rides to the public every Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday afternoon during the period of British Summer Time. It is open from about 2-30 to 5-00pm. The rides are currently free although donations are always welcome.
The members of the Society in their home workshops build the locomotives used on the railway and the majority are coal fired steam engines, being scale replicas of the full sized locomotives. A smaller number are petrol or electric powered and the Society has a petrol-engined locomotive that is used at busy times when we are short of steam locomotives. The members are under no obligation to run their locos and receive no reward other than the pleasure in seeing their models put to the use for which they were built .
