Regrettably we will not be running trains in 2020. We need your help; please visit our COVID-19 page to find out more. Our site is now closed to the public.

We would like to let all our friends and supporters know that regrettably we have decided that we cannot run trains in 2020.

This is for a combination of operational and financial reasons made worse by the Coronavirus situation.

We will be working over the autumn and winter to find a way forward for the railway and we hope to be back next year.

If you would like to make a donation to help us out you may do so by visiting our appeal page.

If you have time or skills that may help us please contact us at enquiries@south-tynedale-railway.org.uk

We will keep you up to date on what is happening here and through our  Facebook page.

Thank you for your understanding.

In the meantime you may like to sit back and enjoy our steam loco Green Dragon taking us from Slaggyford to Alston last summer. As you can see we had a bit of variable North Pennines weather on the way!
