Bredgar & Wormshill Light Railway is a location supported by over 100 volunteers as well as our many thousands of visitors each year despite being one of the lessor known attractions in Kent.  All income is dedicated to improving the experience of our visitors, saving engineering of all types at risk of being lost and introducing young people to the joys of engineering.   We make no profit.

At present we are working hard to get Garforth Station Footbridge restored and erected on site.  At 130 years old we think it deserves to be saved as an example of our rail and engineering heritage.  Can you help - and be here for the opening.  Be on the first train under the restored bridge.

We have some great events for 2026, see details on our Events page
