oPENING tIMES
We are open from 10.30 to 4pm from Easter to the end of October on every weekend, and daily during school holidays.
We are a small group so there may be rare occasions when we can't open. If this is the case there will be a message on the Tea on the Train facebook page (below). Please check.
When we are not open the site is still accessible from the Tarka Trail.

Latest News
our 30th Anniversary Year is over Now but what a great one it's been!
During the winter months we'll be continuing to enhance the site, working on improving our storage and workshop options, all to welcome you back in 2020 when we hope the loco will be running and we will have started work on our passenger-carrying brake van, thanks to a grant from the Bideford Bridge Trust. With the loco and the brake van both on their way to completed restoration, could we be running our train in 2020? Watch this space!
