The railway finished running on December 18th 2011 until March 3rd 2012. We would like to thank everyone who joined us in 2011 and we look forward to seeing you all again in 2012. |

During the six weeks school holidays which is fast approaching we are once again looking to run a service every Tuesday and Thursday until the children start back at school. Our starting time will be 1.30pm till 4pm and this is depending on dry weather. So come along and pay us a visit and enjoy a walk around the park which is nearly complete from the referbishment.  |

On Easter Monday 2011 the railway ran the usual bank holiday service but with a difference this time. All the days takings plus a bucket collection was donated to Help For Heroes. The amount donated was £301.12 so a very big thank you to every one who came along and had a ride on the railway.
We are looking to do something like this every Easter Monday so if you would like to nominate a charity then it will be considered along with the other applications. All we need you to do is write down your nomination along with a contact name and number and bring it along to the park and give it to a railway member then leave the rest to us. So far for Easter 2012 the Air Ambulance is proving very popular. |

All our events that we have arranged so for for this coming year have all been posted on our events page. Please have a look at this and pick an event you would like to attend and perhaps if you have a birthday on one of our event days you may wish to spend a few hours with us. We hope to see you again very soon. |

Regeneration of Greenhead Park |

The work in the park is fully completed and it has made a big difference, we have new footpaths,lights,bandstand and the new lake which was brought back to life for the first time since the war. We have a family of ducks living on the pond what a joy it is. The conservatory has been completley refurbished and is serving food and drinks.
As you walk up in to the arena area the new look café has had major work done on it. This building has a multi use with a function room for meetings and also be a café. The park café backs right on to the station so you can have a brew then come for a ride on the train. The main arena area is once again ready to take heavy use for galas and other events so we very much hope to have the local events staged once again in the park.
The skateboard park I am told is hoping to have a facelift if funding is found.
Parking round the park is on the street and free on one side of the roads. |
