The railway lines of Devon and Cornwall go to and through some spectacularly beautiful places. Golden beaches, pretty fishing harbours, wooded valleys, rugged moorland, winding rivers & estuaries; a day on the train can take them all in. There are always fascinating stories behind each line too: of Victorian engineering ingenuity and fierce competition between rival companies, of the South West's industrial boom, of tragic wartime accidents, and of the effects of Dr Beeching's axe on the region's railway landscape.

At Rail Days, we take our visitors on tailor-made tours of Devon and Cornwall's railways.
