The Last Narrow-Gauge Railway Adventure

LYD has left Woody Bay and returned to the Ffestiniog Railway - Click HERE to see photos of the loading.

The 2013 May Gala would not have been possible without the significant support of F&WHR General Manager Paul Lewin (above) and his team, including several visiting drivers, fireman and many other F&WHR supporters who were on site over most of the three gala days - and also to LYD's creator James Evans. The L&B thanks them all for their continued support of our railway ... no longer sleeping!

Celebrate 150 years of narrow gauge steam with the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways

Please note - these two restored original L&B vehicles are not currently in use

HELP US MAKE THE RAILWAY LONGER

Did you know that having a heritage railway nearby significantly boosts the local economy?

The World awaits the Possible Dream

More than 75 years after the railways closure you can once more board a train at England's highest narrow-gauge railway station - the delightfully named Woody Bay Station - 1,000 feet up on wild Exmoor.   Run almost entirely by volunteers, we are a "non-profit" organisation owned by its Members with the mission to fully restore as much as we can of the legendary Lynton & Barnstaple Railway.
