Its been a very busy few months with ongoing works at the railway Work that has been undertaken includes renewal of the waiting shelter at The Dam, renewal of the canopy at Rudyard Station, restoration of the Mull carriages and completion of the wheelchair friendly coach. We have also installed GPS trackers on the trains and put up a passenger information board on Platform 2 so you can see where the trains are. We also bid farewell to Pendragon (which is privately owned).

Our Halloween and fireworks trains proved very popular again. Our Santa Specials were expanded to 3 weekends which whilst popular the first weekend did not sell out so we will revert to 2 weekends for future years.
