"The most beautiful train
journey in England"
The Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway, or "La'al
Ratty" as it affectionately known, was opened in
1875 to bring ion ore from Eskdale to the
Furness Railway at Ravenglass.
The line
was purchased by a preservation society and
converted to a narrow gauge of 15 inches.
The railway carries passengers from the old
Roman port of Ravenglass seven miles along the
Eskdale Valley to Eskdale (Dalegarth).
Trains are hauled by either steam or diesel
engines.
