Running northwards from Alston in Cumbria, England's highest market town, the narrow gauge South Tynedale Railway crosses into Northumberland to a temporary terminus at Lintley. Its heritage steam and diesel trains run through lovely valley scenery with the high moors of the Pennines on either side. Very soon we will start to rebuild the tracks onwards from Lintley to the Northumbrian village of Slaggyford. We hope that eventually the railway will once again go all the way to its original junction with the main line at Haltwhistle.

There is a lineside footpath from Alston to Lintley and the path continues from there along the old trackbed. At Alston station you will find a cafe, gift shop, discovery centre, viewing workshops and free parking for cars and coaches.
