Our Railway is entirely run by volunteers and is a registered Charity, so everything we make goes back into making it secure for the future, including the takings from our large souvenir and gift shop at Eastoke Station.
We are always looking for new volunteers in a wide range of roles (driver, guard, clippie, shop assistant, maintenance, etc.) and if you can spare a little time and you are interested in finding out more, please email us at: haylinglightrailway@yahoo.com or you can pop in on any running days and talk to one of our volunteers, a cuppa will be available!
