    After some recent research we have now made changes to our main website. We will over the coming months be bringing our stock list in house. So please have a look and tell us what you think.

    Welcome to the online home of Foxfield Railway.

    I find the fares are very hard to read, I would suggest white or yellow text instead of black. Also the timetable is hard to read, the blue on the red background is not easy on the eye and whatever is written on the blue squares is almost invisible!

    On a positive note the home page is very good as is the rest of the site.

    Ah, yes! Our coding for the hyper-links seems to have gone nuts! A resolution in the next day or too! Thanks for the note.

    The Home page is now very attractive and much less cluttered. Congratulations. "Finding Us" (by rail) refers to services being provided by Central Trains. Is it not East Midlands Trains who have the franchise now?

    I'm going to be visiting Foxfield for the first time on Saturday, can anyone tell me what is likely to be running/happening?

    Not a lot according to Timetable & Fares | Foxfield Railway, Staffordshire there isn't anything running on Saturday, although there is on Sunday.

    In my experience, Foxfield is very very good on gala days, definitely worth the visit, with freights on the bank, etc. The next gala is in October. At other times, it's OK if you want a train ride, or maybe a ride and a walk.
