Colne Valley Railway, Heritage railway in Castle Hedingham, England.
The railway extends for one mile through the Essex countryside, featuring a reconstructed Victorian station building and functioning signal box at Castle Hedingham.
Established in 1860 as part of the Colne Valley and Halstead Railway, the line transported goods and passengers until its closure in 1965.
The preservation society maintains a collection of vintage locomotives and railway artifacts, representing transportation methods from different periods of British railway history.
Visitors can purchase tickets for scheduled train rides throughout the day, with special events and steam locomotive operations during weekends and holidays.
The original station building was dismantled brick by brick from its initial location and meticulously reconstructed at the current heritage railway site.
