Running four and a half miles between Lydney Junction and Parkend, the quietly beautiful and scenic Dean Forest Railway was opened in 1813, and re-opened in 1971. Travelling in nostalgic and comfortable carriages, pulled by either carefully restored steam locomotives or delightful diesel locomotives, this line winds through the atmospheric and calming panorama of the Forest of Dean, passing the numerous quaint station houses that have been repaired and maintained by the dedicated volunteers that continue to run the line to this day.
