We're staying nearby, so weheaded down on Saturday. We got tickets nice and easy from the helpful, friendly staff. We went for a short walk along the path at the side of the line while we waited for the train to arrive. It was a nice ride along the line to Slaggyford, where they had a buffet car serving drinks and snacks. It was nice that we were able to take the dogs on the trip as well.

Interesting quirky railway with friendly staff and 5 miles of track with scenic cumbrian countryside. Loved travelling in the open coach. Made a great afternoon out.

Nice little narrow gauge railway, really friendly staff and volunteers throughout, felt around 5 miles and decent spot for walkers!

We took the railway from Alston to Slaggyford return. Volunteers running the railway couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. The cafe at Slaggyford did great hot chocolates, and was 100% doggy friendly. Was such a scenic journey, even with it raining. Next time we will consider walking part of the route and getting the train the rest of the way.

A lovely walk along the South Tyne river and railway. You need to check days and times if intending to see the trains running. Parking on the road alongside the station in Alston. The path is hard stoned surface suitable for all, however not quite suited for wheelchair users as mentioned in some of the literature. Plenty to see and points of interest along the route.

It's a nice little place, the train looks like something out of a movie. We plan to do the train ride, the people in the café are so friendly and the foods are really nice too.

First off we didn't actually go on the train but we did call into cafe which is on the platform. You have the option of sitting in or outside if the weather is nice, decent selection of sandwiches etc in a lovely setting, staff very pleasant and prices reasonable, dog friendly. Worth calling in if your visiting Alston or passing through.
