HAPPY DAYS TO YOU ALL! THE STEAM BAN HAS BEEN LIFTED!! Thanks to the rain we had over the weekend we can now run our little steam loco, Davanna! We’re aiming to open our gates at 12.30 with the last train at 4.50. Make sure you come along for some fabulous steamie action at the oldest pub garden miniature railway in the kingdom!
We still have some Scamps at the railway today, all ready to take you out for a ride around our track! Trains start at 12.30 with the last at 4.50. See you soon!
What a rainy old day! Thank you to everyone who ventured out to the first day of our Scamp Invasion. The rain was so heavy, but the crew still got on with taking passengers out, double top and tailing to make it easier to get up the hill! After our running day our fantastic team of volunteers enjoyed a group BBQ to celebrate their amazing efforts, where we also had the chance to officially announce our new loco Peggy (Pippa) ready for the tracks! Alan, our loco builder, was presented with a builder’s plaque which will go on her tender, while we then handed over the key to Peggy to our driver trainer, Tony. It was a lovely day!! And welcoming the rain means we will very soon be welcome steam back to the railway too!
Despite the rain it was a great day and fantastic bbq, thanks Kevin for bringing and manning the bbq
Don’t let the rain put you off coming to our Scamp weekend - locos have already started to arrive. Trains running from 12.30/1pm today as we have some work going on at the station. See you soon! 😃
Shame the rain came
