The Wensleydale railway comes past our land and they have struggled to make it viable, many a time the train goes past with no one on it and thats without having to buy land. I was told it costs a million pounds a mile to reinstate the track to be useable this was from Redmire up to Hawes but there are a few bridges to put back in. So I wouldn't think they will want to spend a lot unless you are a very touristy spot which I suppose we are here.
We always joke that they are just blokes that were deprived of trainsets as kids.
The track is in terrible condition for the most part, I don't know how they dare run the big steamers up it
