About Corris Railway

The Corris Railway was the first narrow Gauge railway in Mid-Wales, built in 1859. The train runs almost every weekend, with other periods of availability during the summer, but it's always best to call ahead if you're making a special trip. The round trip taking 50 minutes, including a guided tour of the 133-year old engine shed and workshops at Maespoeth. No single tickets are issued as under planning requirements all journeys must start and end at Corris Station. Passenger services will be steam-hauled whenever possible, but this cannot be guaranteed. Please phone on the day to check which locomotive will be operating. Their trains include provision for the carriage of wheelchair passengers and those with reduced mobility, as does the Museum and Ticket Office. Well behaved dogs are welcome and are carried on the train at the discretion of the train crew.
