The Trust collects, conserves and displays narrow-gauge railway items for public education in an enjoyable way.

Narrow-gauge is part of our history. The lines happily still running today survive as leisure attractions, but until the mid-20th century there were many more around the country, part of everyday life carrying passengers and freight, and serving industry and the military.

As these lines closed, pioneering enthusiasts ensured that many relics were saved for future generations, and that is how the Narrow Gauge Railway Museum began. The Trust that runs it today gives free admission so that as many people as possible can enjoy it, and relies on donations to fund its continued operation.
