Sunday 23rd August 2026 We will not be operating steam locomotives on Sunday 23rd August - but one of our heritage Class 37 diesel locomotives will be in service instead!
Here is a great photo of the Midland (blue) Pullman that visited our line on Monday 30th August - taken just before leaving Dartmouth Steam Railway and going on Network Rail.
Sights and smells -
Cannot beat the smell and sound of a steam locomotive, a very scenic ride firstly along the beach, then along the river Dart. A couple of hours in Dartmouth then all aboard for trip back.
Great!! -
We all had such a fantastic day out. From the wonderful, helpful and friendly staff at Paignton to the quick and easy ferry crossing and the brilliant steamboat trip. Our captain on the steamboat was just amazing, so funny and full of brilliant facts and local knowledge.
An enjoyable day! -
Had a wonderful day riding on the steam railway and a boat trip along the River Dart. Excellent scenery along the coast. The ferry was quick and efficient.
