Overview

This narrow gauge stream Railway is a gem. The journey from Ravenglass to Dalegath is one of matchless beauty, from winding river estuary to a Station with a great view of Lakeland’s highest mountain, Scafell. All trains are wheelchair and mobility scooter assessable. The are two cafes at Dalegarth, we visited the lower one which is dog friendly. It can be accessed by a gentl tarmac slope from the station platform. My friend had a free ticket as my carer. Ideally it is better to give advance warning. We didn’t but the railway staff quickly removed a seat to create a generous space for my scooter and took charge of loading and unloading it, with great cheerfulness and good humour.
