A brand new visitor to the Weardale Railway has been announced.

On the 21st June, the railway will be welcoming The Romic Group’s legendary HST for the very first time.

The HST will be running three return services between Stanhope and Bishop Auckland, with tickets providing unlimited travel to allow visitors to hop on and off services to explore.

Both Standard and First Class tickets are available, along with family options to provide as many people as possible with the experience of this uncommon sight.

Standard class is priced at £25 per adult, with full ticket information and timetable available on the railway’s website.
