One of the best features of our farm is the wonderful miniature railway that crosses the farm.
This is a 15" gauge railway, that is owned and run by Austin Moss.
Austin constructed the railway himself, laying all the track and making some of the engines and coaches in his workshop here at the farm.
The track is over one mile in length and the half way point is at Lake View. Visitors can disembark the train here and look at the lovely scenery whilst the children play on the new Lake View Play Area.
The train runs every day the farm is open, starting at 11.00 am, and is always on time every half hour until 4.30 pm.
We are very lucky to have both steam engines and diesel engines, all being run by Austin and his team of dedicated volunteers. Austin is always looking for helpers, so if you have a love of trains and a few hours to spare, please give him a call, here at the farm. |
