If you walk or cycle along the Tarka Trail and pass the Puffing Billy or Torrington Cycle hire opposite, you may have seen a railway carriage or two and been intrigued.
Every Thursday a group of heritage lovers and old friends meet up at Tarka Valley Railway station for a day of renovations, light exercise, chat, fun and lots of tea.
The diverse group known as The Tarka Valley Railway Group was formed in 2008 to preserve what remained of the railway at Torrington and to begin an extension of the line back towards Bideford.

This is such good news. I didn’t know it even existed. I came this way on a special tour in the 70s. The line was open as far as Meeth for china clay.

It’s great to see so many retired people enjoying life with a great aim. Maybe the local councils could get behind and back the schemes as we need railways they are the solution that was taken away by GREED and now we simply cannot build more roads and electric cars with lithium batteries are not the solution. The world needs to slow down a bit

Wouldn't it be nice if it eventually got back to Barnstaple, one can dream of course!!

I suspect the Barnstaple - Bideford section would have been the more commercially viable option but good luck to them in any case

The trains 🚂 running between Torrington and Bideford last ran in 1965 could be a thing of the future when the time 🕛 comes. It would probably be a good 👍 thing to happen. Where a train 🚂 could extend to Barnstaple via Bideford. It could happen to be a true dream 😴. If trains 🚂 run between Torrington and Barnstaple via Bideford and Instow, this could happen every hour runs everyday and public holidays except Christmas 🎄🤶🧑‍🎄🎅 Day and Boxing 🥊 Day, perhaps 🤔 could run on New Year’s Day 🥳🎉🪅🎈🎊 it means buses 🚍 on the roads may be reduced to depart Bideford to Barnstaple via Instow every 15 minutes 🕒 to every hour 🕛 depending how many people use the trains 🚆. Also if trains 🚊 run from Torrington to Barnstaple, it could run all the way to Exeter St Davids and Exeter Central. If the railway 🚃 track is completed ✅ between Torrington and Barnstaple via Instow & Bideford, it could commence on Sunday 1st September 2030. There is a directing bus 🚎 service runs from Torrington to Bideford is operated by Stagecoach 75 and Go Devon Bus 🚎 315 runs Mondays to Saturdays throughout the year except public holidays. 😍😎👍❤️💕

Torrington station is quite a distance from the town at the bottom of s steep hill, probably why it wasn’t used and closed
