    I live on the route have used the train. I’m not an enthusiast, but it’s a beautiful piece of history.

    They offer regular events, ghost trains, Santa trains, 1940s weekends where everyone dresses up in period costume. They even had a tank delivered one year and it was so heavy it ruined the high street.

    Most of the staff are volunteers .

    Well worth a visit if that’s your thing, and definitely working preserving, regardless of cost .

      I think enthusiast is a loaded term, it shouldn’t put people off having a fun day out and looking at some cool trains.

      Don’t think I’ve had a bad time at a heritage railway, especially if you time the visit for when a beer festival is on.
