It might not seem like it at first glance, but the platform staff are one of the most important people on the railway! The platform staff are there to meet & greet our visitors, conduct site tours that inform visitors of the fascinating stories behind each vehicle under restoration and the railway. We have retail shop stocking books, model railway items, local produce and other items to generate valuable income for the railway.
Our Events team get involved in major weekend operations such as the Model Railway Show and 1940s event in addition to helping run the midweek inclusion visits and private charter groups.
During the summer months we run inclusion events for people living with a wide range of conditions including dementia, neurodiversity, learning difficulties and carer groups. These run midweek and are very rewarding. We also run a number of pre-booked visits for local school groups which occur throughout the year.
