UPDATED 26/06/2020
The Northampton & Lamport Railway is very pleased to announce that we intend to re-open to the public on Sunday 2nd August 2020.
We will be operating a reduced timetable and all visitors will be required to book in advance. More details will follow closer to the reopening date.
In the mean time, if you’re out and about on the Brampton Valley Way, keep an eye open for our ‘ghost trains’. We will be running a series of refresher trains without passengers to ensure staff competency is maintained and to ensure locomotives and stock are in certification.
The site remains open for Volunteer Working Members to come and work on various projects (in accordance with Government guidance). However, Volunteer Working Members should not attend the site if they (or anyone in their household) is displaying symptoms of the virus.
