A belated happy new year to all our page followers!

Our permanent way team have been busy and the relaid section of track on our southern boundary has now been completed and is just waiting for consolidation and the ballast shoulders. Attention now turns to other minor repairs in other area's of the track in readiness for the start of our public running season which begins on April 5th 2026.

The first public running is a two-session day, beginning at 13:00, and tickets will be avaliable on our trybooking site here : https://www.trybooking.com/uk/events/landing/95058

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all our followers a very Merry Christmas and to wish everyone a very Happy New Year.

The railway is currently closed for winter maintenance which this year involves some planned track relaying. These pictures show several panels which have been removed, this is to allow the ballast to be washed and for the formation to be slightly realigned and relaid

It really is a fabulous view over the Rainsbrook valley, in all but the very worst weathers
