About the L&B: Closed in 1935 - this is the first phase in rebuilding one of the world’s most famous and picturesque narrow gauge railways; the legendary Lynton & Barnstaple Railway. A one mile section has now been reopened allowing visitors to travel by train along the original ‘L&B Railway’ route above the Heddon Valley near Parracombe in South West England’s Exmoor National Park. Today’s visitors can experience a taste of what will one day become one of the ultimate heritage narrow gauge railway experiences of the world.
Owned by a Registered Charity and run as a "Not For Profit" organisation - we offer narrow gauge train rides in Exmoor National Park at Woody Bay Station North Devon - England’s highest narrow gauge railway station.
