The South Devon Railway is a friendly heritage railway line running trains along a beautiful, unspoilt 7 mile former GWR branch that hugs the River Dart between Buckfastleigh and Totnes. Using vintage steam locomotives and carriages in the tradition of a bygone age, it offers fabulous scenery only seen from the railway.

We have a varied and unique collection of railway and transport artifacts. At Buckfastleigh, you’ll find a museum, refreshment rooms, walks, riverside picnic area, gardens, play area and, on selected days, a heritage bus service. Joint tickets are available for the Totnes Rare Breeds Farm and Buckfast Butterflies and Dartmoor Otter Sanctuary, both adjacent to the railway.
