The end of another great day, with wonderful weather! Davanna and Phoenix were out and about for the afternoon, taking lots of passengers around. Thanks to everyone to visited this weekend. Our lovely volunteers, including our visitor from Nene Valley Railway, are enjoying an end of day cuppa and debrief! #

We have the most amazing volunteers!

Bill, Mark and Kevin have been tirelessly working on the construction of a new canopy at the station - you’ve probably seen the work going on. It’s looking fantastic and will be a really lovely feature!

Alan has been working incredibly hard on the restoration of Pippa, with help from Tony, Stevie and Jamie. Pippa was one of our locos destroyed in the 2015 Fire of Fancott. Today, Pippa made it out on the tracks without another engine for support!

Well done guys! Absolutely fantastic work!

The troops at the end of a long day. They’re actually happy with the progress made on Pippa! 🤣

The weekend was a busy one at the railway. Some of our volunteers have been busy building a new canopy for the station, which has meant clearing the bushes and trees around the area. We also saw another driver being trained on the steam engine, and new locos being built. This couldn’t happen without the amazing team of volunteers we have, who dedicate their time to making this little piece of Bedfordshire a unique place for our visitors. If you’re interested in joining us, or would like to come along and see what volunteering with us is all about, drop a DM or give us a call on 07917756237.

Scamp 152 ‘Sammy’ got to work today shunting wood and felt up to the station for the new canopy! Lots of pushing and pulling and lifting from our crew of volunteers. We still reckon Sammy worked the hardest though. 🤣
