150th Anniversary of Bideford station on 12th June

A great day was had by all celebrating the 150th anniversary of the opening of our station on 10th June 1872.  Vintage vehicles were on display, there were operating model railways and loads of stalls for the afternoon.  Yet again our train proved highly popular.  

NEXT TRAIN RUNNING DATE:

Travelling on and payment for the train

Only two passengers may travel at any time and children must be accompanied by an adult. Ride fares are £4 a head for adults and for children, but families with multiple children wishing to ride will not be charged again for the accompanying adult.
