Support the L&BR Trust

Unlike many preserved heritage railways dating from the 1950s and ’60s, the L&BR was completely dismantled in 1936, its unique locos and carriages cut up for scrap and the trackbed sold off piecemeal to over a hundred different landowners.

By 1938 all that remained were the abandoned trackbed, earthworks and bridges.
