The Plym Valley Railway

The Plym Valley Railway was founded in 1980 with an aim of restoring part of the ex-Great Western branch line from Plymouth to Tavistock that was closed in 1962. On December 30th 2012 Plym Bridge Platform was opened to the public. This marked 50 years and a day since the line was closed, and also the completion of the laying of 1.5 miles of track. We are a wholly voluntary run railway with our sole income coming from running trains- something we have not been able to do due to the coronavirus pandemic.

We appreciate all donations to help us to return to running trains again.
