On Saturday 12 September 2015 members visited the private Statfold Barn
Railway. The
Statfold Barn Railway is an extensive multi-gauge private railway near
Tamworth. It is home to an extensive collection of historic steam,
diesel and electric
locomotives from
Britain and overseas.
Although the railway is not open to the public, a number of
“Enthusiasts’ Days” are held each year and interested enthusiasts may
apply for an invitation to one of these events. At most Open Days
Statfold’s own locomotives are joined by one or two interesting visitors
from other railways. Locomotives from the Statfold collection also make
occasional appearances on various heritage railways around Britain and
at major model railway exhibitions and other special events.
