Our railway has provided the setting for numerous TV and Film productions over the years. Our delightful Victorian and Edwardian carriages, (dating back to 1864) have been beautifully restored to pristine condition, and all have genuine original fittings. When used in conjunction with one of our Victorian locomotives, the oldest of which was built in 1876, the perfect period atmosphere of a bygone age in a rural location can be recreated.
