Stainmore Railway Company
In 1962 the Workington to Darlington line was axed by Beeching and closed to passengers. It finally closed to freight in 1974 and Kirkby Stephen East station remained derelict until it was purchased by Stainmore Properties Ltd. It has been developed as a Heritage Centre over the years by Stainmore Railway Company volunteers and now has an operational railway which welcomes visitors at weekends. You will find additional links on their website.
Distance approximately 5 miles from The Inn at Brough.
