Photographic Evening

Our popular photographic evening returns for 2026, featuring a variety of locomotives, rolling stock and volunteers in period clothing. The evening will see a packed itinerary of staged scenes in the yard and the opportunity to visit lineside locations to capture several ‘run pasts’ of the railway’s demonstration freight trains.

📸 This is an outdoor event and will involve walking on ballast and uneven surfaces. All participants must wear sturdy shoes and other suitable outdoor clothing. Photographers of all experience welcome.

☕️ The Waggonway Tea Room will be open for refreshments.

Event runs 6pm – 10pm.

🎟️ Tickets are £10 and are strictly limited to 50 places. More information coming soon.
