Steam Returns to Wirksworth!

We are delighted to announce that the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway is a steam railway once more!

Locomotive Ferrybridge No.3 ran her first train this lunchtime after an 18-month restoration project following over 30 years out of service.

A dramatic photograph of her inaugural run can be found here:

Yours with grit in his hair and a smile on his face,
