The route passes through rolling countryside, woodlands, and alongside the River Eden, providing stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
Had a Lovely day at this railway. Volunteers were friendly and helpful. The train ride is short but very enjoyable and has a lot of character. Definetly deserves more reconigtion.
Had a fabulous few hours, travelled on their diesel train and were shown it's massive engine then drove one of their diesel shunters. Volunteers could not have been more helpful. One of the lesser known railways and deserves more recognition
This was our first visit. We really enjoyed our time spent at the EVR. Everyone we met were so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The train ride was wonderful. It would be brilliant to see it eventually reach it aspired destination. Driver experience for PS5 is a must. It was so enjoyable to do. No experience is required. There is a cafe selling drinks and snacks, though limited for a reason. There is also the model railway layouts, a book / emporium, and a signal box to visit. This small railway is well worth a visit. We'll be visiting again.
A unusual unique experience at the Eden Valley Railway, enjoyed the train ride on the line and the trains especially. Feels so underrated and recommend visiting if your nearby (Depending when its open).
Visit on Sundays for driver for a fiver, and get a chance to drive a train. All the volunteers were very friendly and made us feel extremely welcome.
Really enjoyed my train trip and being a driver for a PS5. The railway is well worth a visit. Warm welcome from the volunteer staff.
