About Us

The Society is dedicated to the re-instatement of the 3 mile former BR branch line from the East Coast main line at Alnmouth to the County town of Alnwick, seat of the Duke of Northumberland.

We are presently based at Longhoughton Goods Yard, and designs for our new station to be built at Lionheart business park are well underway.
