    There is no joint station with the WHHR though. There plenty of joint stations between heritage railways and network rail, but as far as I'm aware none between two separate heritage railways.

    True enough, I thought that we were talking junctions rather than joint stations, I was wrong. Blodwell Jn on the Tanat Valley line might eventually become one, if a station is ever built there.

    A really excellent set of photos, it gives a very good insight into the state of things up there. Thanks very much for taking, and posting, them.

    Yes, of course I do!!
    But they are separate lines, with separate names and marketed at least partially separately - so I think that counts.

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but does anyone know what is happening with the plans to extend. The website seems no longer to give updates of work being carried out, and is very silent on their immediate plans to get to Hoe?

    The MNR have previously had an end of season works train up to the limits of the usable line that gives you some idea of how things have progressed. Not heard if it has happened or is due soon? Would be good to find out.
