This blog will be having a short break for the next two weeks – but look out for announcements on its return on the 23rd August – more confirmations for the GNSF and maybe the gallopers up and running…!!!

Remember there are still steam services every weekend at the station and Blue Circle is due to arrive next week so will be on display in the colliery engine shed. The Bowes Railway holds its toy and train fair next weekend (14/15th August) and will have our own Puffing Billy as a star attraction.
