Churnet Valley Railway (1992) PLC

Though the enthusiasm and dedication of the line's volunteers, the Churnet Valley Railway is able to take you on a journey back to the classic days of railway travel, along a rural line that passes through beautiful countryside known locally as Staffordshire's "Little Switzerland".

The picturesque stations of Kingsley & Froghall, Consall and Cheddleton all offer lots of interesting things to see & do, with a complete range of visitor facilities, and there's plenty more to look out for along the way.

In addition to the 11-mile return journey along the Churnet Valley, there's a taste of contrasting moorland scenery up the steeply graded Cauldon Branch which presently offers an additional 9-mile round trip to Ipstones Loop.
