Wensleydale Railway Statement

From Wensleydale Railway to the residents of Leeming Bar.

"Dear Local Residents,

Preparations are once again underway at Leeming Bar Station to host this year’s Polar Express Christmas train services. This is the 6th year that we have operated this hugely popular event, and it will officially open to the public on Friday 14 November. All the services will run between Fridays and Sundays, except at the very end, when it will be 5 consecutive days from Thursday18 December to Tuesday 23 December. The running days, shown in red, can be found on our website here: [https://wensleydale-railway.co.uk/running-days-2025/](https://wensleydale-railway.co.uk/running-days-2025/)

We apologise for any inconvenience that you may have been caused during the recent delivery and build of the marquees and subsequent equipment and supplies deliveries. As in previous years, we have reminded our staff and volunteers to do everything possible to minimise any disruption over the coming weeks and to park considerately.

Thank you for your understanding and patience and we appreciate your support of our volunteer-led community railway.

Wensleydale Railway."
