Wensleydale Railway

The Wensleydale Railway is now the third 'new-generation' line, along with the Mid-Norfolk and  Keith & Dufftown, to use heritage DMUs as the main source of passenger vehicles. The Class 107 is on hire from Class 107 Ltd.

These images, all by Alistair Beadle, look at the start of services. More can be found on his website devoted to the railway at www.wrphoto.co.uk
