The popular, family-owned Gartell Light Railway is holding its last open day of 2021 on Sunday, October 24, at Common Lane Yenston BA8 0NB, before the line closes for winter.

A trip down the line, including part of the former Somerset and Dorset railway which ran until 1966, is a day out with a difference.

Two trains will operate on the narrow (2-foot) gauge line, one steam and one diesel at 25-minute intervals from 10.30 until 16.30. Snacks will be available from the Pines buffet and there is plenty of free parking. There is also a shop selling books and souvenirs, where a model railway will be running. All-day tickets available.

The railway will be signposted on the day from the A357 at Yenston, between Templecombe and Henstridge crossroads.
