The Wensleydale Railway operates heritage diesel train services between Scruton and Leyburn and offers a great day out for all the family. Enjoy spectacular scenery, visit restored historic stations and learn more about the 1900s way of life whilst enjoying free guided tours with our costumed living history interpreters
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Wensleydale Railway. Without their efforts, there would be nothing for our thousands of visitors to ride on and see the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales. Our dedicated volunteers come from all walks of life with many different skills; some like to get their hands dirty and others do not. That is up to you!
It is an exciting place to work with never a dull moment! Whether you are passionate about heritage, want to learn new skills, are looking to make a difference and make new friends along the way, there is a rewarding role for you at the railway.
Volunteers can either give a regular amount of time each week / month or work on an ad hoc basis to fit with their other commitments. Volunteers of all ages are very welcome but must be at least 18 years old.
There are many different areas on the railway where you can get involved:
