    Business Description

    The Lynton & Barnstaple Railway Company is a non-profit organization run by volunteers with the goal of restoring the legendary Lynton & Barnstaple Railway. The railway, which originally opened in 1898 and closed in 1935, is being rebuilt with the help of dedicated volunteers and supporters. The first mile of the original line has already been reopened, allowing visitors to experience a taste of what will one day become one of the ultimate narrow gauge treasures of the world. The project aims to fully restore as much as possible of the 19-mile original route, linking Barnstaple to the twin towns of Lynton and Lynmouth by rail. The railway is a registered educational trust and is owned by its members. The ultimate goal is to once again travel by train along the original route above the delightful Heddon Valley near Parracombe in Exmoor's National Park.
