Leek & Rudyard Railway: The Journey So Far

Join me on a trip down memory lane.
The journey starts back in 2010 when I came across a video by Ian Burgess, showing a snow covered lakeside with a train full of families, watching Santa go by on a boat on Rudyard Lake. I thought it looked so good, I had to pay a visit - which I did on 23rd May 2010, and have returned on a regular basis for the past 13 years.
With the owner's decision to retire and put the railway up for sale, and all the uncertainty that comes with it, I decided to put together this video showing a few minutes action from each of the years I've been there. I can't thank everyone at the LRR enough for making me feel very much a part of things there. We certainly had some laughs and fun along the way. I sincerely hope the railway carries on delighting families with trips alongside the lake for a long time to come.

Apologies only just found your message. Not at all sure what is going to happen. Hope we meet up again.

Fully agree with your comments, it would be a great shame to lose this wonderful little railway, I hope a new buyer comes forward and realises just what a gem it is.

We will have to wait and see what happens. Would be a sad day to see it disappear after all the hard work the volunteers put in over the years.
