Riley’s Miniature Railway

Ideal for: Couples, Everyone, Families, Older Flyers
A charming miniature railway that evokes all the fun and nostalgia of the golden age of train travel.

Riley's Miniature Railway is a not for profit, fun, miniature railway where at the beginning of each year a donation collected from fares is sent to the Evelina Children's Hospital in London, part of Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust.

They offer rides to both children and adults alike and are one of the few, ground level, 5-inch gauge railways open to the public in the UK. As such, it is considered to be the smallest practical ride-on track gauge.

It's located at the Lavender Line at Isfield Station in Station Road, just off the A26 between Lewes and Uckfield. With generous free parking, this is a delightful standard gauge heritage railway with preserved steam and diesel locomotives offering a two-mile round trip. The railway's shop can be found within the old waiting room, the grade II-listed signal box can be visited and the Lavenders Tea Room is located in the old station building.

Open on selected days, please see their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/RileysMiniatureRailway
