Wensleydale Railway is working very hard behind the scenes to return the line to working as soon as we are able. However, with no traffic for months we face issues of vegetation and line repair, which we are already now working on, following the slight relaxing of the Government guidance. We are also using the down time to complete some much needed engineering work: Leeming Bar Station House; Harmby track work and a possible crossing renewal. We will start to run services when these works have been fully completed. In parallel with track and infrastructure work, restoration of rolling stock continues with external contractors as we ready ourselves for Polar Express
Please note, that the railway is still operational for works trains and MOD services to Redmire, and as such is still a live railway. Trespass on the track is not only dangerous but also a criminal offence. Please keep off the railway, for your own safety.
