Title: Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Railway Post by: REVUpminster on June 20, 2020, 11:08:45 The steam railway and it's associated ferries expect to start running on the 7 July 2020 with reduced capacity on the trains but more services running. They usually run more in the summer anyway. They have a lot of paid staff.
This is good news for Torbay after the closure of Living Coasts. Paignton Zoo opens to the general public on 8 July. Kent's Cavern 11 July, Model village and Bygones 4 July.

A train was running a week ago on a test run and more are planned. This railway did not get any grants, that I could see, like the South Devon Railway. Perhaps, again I suppose, they have staff furloughed. Title: Re: Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Railway Post by: Clan Line on March 19, 2021, 22:36:21 Nice one in the Telegraph (again) on Monday.
