Visitor Quotes

The following are taken from the railway’s visitors book at Woody Bay Station.

“Having booked 21 adults and 15 children in for a Santa Special, I would like to say thank you for a great morning - all our party enjoyed it.  Having 4 children of my own I am well experienced in meeting Father Christmas - I must say he was absolutely fab!

Happy Christmas to you all”
- Claire, Barnstaple

“I just wanted to let you know how much I love your website. Its updated really frequently and following my two visits to you this year I keep up to date with your railway adventure.” - Andy , Havant

“Very welcoming staff, lovely refreshments. Beautiful scenery and a really great steamy ride.” - Caroline Brooks and Family, Shibbington, Hants

“Very cosy station, great welcome, lovely train journey.” - Mr and Mrs Davies, Rhymney, South Wales

“I love it here. I come nearly every year and each year gets better and better.” - Kyle Astbury, Chester

“I visited the L&B with my wife and two daughters. I enjoyed the experience far more than expected - there was more to see and do than is the perception given by the website. We particularly liked the general tidiness (especially the toilets) the tea rooms, and the general ambiance of the station. We also found the volunteer staff friendly and efficient. The focus on customer enjoyment rather than just running a railway is to be commended.” - Bruce and Kristina, Somerset

“A really great place to visit. Good outing for all the family” - Carol and Colin Silk, Gravesend

“Impressed with how far you have progressed since our last visit 2 yrs ago - wonderful time had by all.” - R and F Bourne, East Sussex

“Lots of fun - 3 very excited little boys!” - The Barton Family, Hildenborough, Kent

“Perfect perfect what a lovely place. Train, everything, perfect.” - J Young

We would just like to thank you for the lovely time we had on 28 December after not being able to get to you to travel on the Santa Specials because of the snow. We had a great time on the steam train and we were made very welcome by all of you. Santa had even left a present for Erin - she was so chuffed! Thanks again - we will come and visit you again in the summer.

” - Pauline, Lou and Erin

“An excellent day. Very friendly. Best wishes for the extension.” - Brian and Carol Hunt, Mansfield

“Wonderful - good to see it blossom over the years” - Sheena and Tony Lee , Basildon

“Absolutely wonderful - a tremendous achievement.” - Daphne Wheaton, Wilstead, Beds

“A lovely train ride with knowledgeable, patient guard and driver, willing to answer our train enthusiast’s questions! Great cuppa too. Good luck with the planned works! We’ll be back to see the progress!” - Nikki, Tim, Joseph and Oliver Inchley, Wolverton, Milton Keynes

“Me and the kids have loved it, not expensive and something for everyone, very helpful and friendly staff. Thank you xxx” - Tina Bluden, Beal, North Yorkshire

“I visited your railway a few weeks ago and have never been made to feel more welcome on a preserved railway. I have been involved with many preserved lines for many years and yours is one of the best set-ups I have come across.” - Ian W, Cheshire

“My Grandfathers favourite railway 1930.  "Perchance to rise again". It will happen” - Charlie and Ali Ridley, Cumbria

“Still a magic little world” - Peter T, Croydon

“Excellent, well run railway!” - The Brown Clan, Tamworth, Staffordshire
