    Freight running will depend on demand for passenger trains! We try to operate some demo freights, but if we have platforms crowded with people wanting rides, they have to take precedence.
    There are footpaths along the whole length of the line, Mangapps Junction signal box is also a favoured position for photographers.

    Had a brilliant time during my visit on Sunday, my first visit since I was a baby/toddler in about 1990/91!
