From catering to parking, the station team to the 'pit stop boys', it takes more than just the drivers to make the bluebell day work... and this is just on the day! 📸 Graeme Bristow

Yesterday many of our visitors might have wondered what was going on with the raised level track beneath them, as they passed over the bridge or walked alongside it. Well, this winter we began replacing all the life-expired wooden beams that carry the railway, with composite materials. The work continued today and as this clip from 📸 Julian White shows, the quality of the ride will be improved too.

Wow! What a day for 'Trains through the Bluebells 2026'! Lots of photos to follow, for sure. Thank you to everyone who visited us; we hope you had a lovely time. The bluebells were magnificent and it was geninely lovely to see so many happy faces, young and not so young alike, in the name of fun and raising money for the Countess of Brecknock Hospice. 📸 Dean Tiller captured this footage on the last train of the day; figured those who weren't able to be there today might enjoy it! Best watched with the volume up.

Our young engineers, aged between 11 and 18, have been busy making progress on building a new club sweet pea loco. This was facilitated through a very kind donation which included a boiler. It's been great to see them working on 'their' project together learning new skills alongside members with more experience. Not only has their friendship grown, but what a great thing to be able to put on your CV when applying for an apprenticeship or similar!
