Welcome to the Lincolnshire Wolds Railway!
The LWR is situated in a beautiful part of the Lincolnshire countryside between the Wolds and the coast, and is only a short distance from Grimsby, the seaside resort of Cleethorpes and the historic market town of Louth.
The railway operates on a stretch of line that used to be part of the Great Northern route from Boston to Grimsby.
After the last section of the line closed in 1980, a preservation society was formed with the aim of restoring it. Gradually the infrastructure was put back in place, locomotives and rolling stock were acquired and restored to working order.
What visitors to the railway see today is a result of all the time and effort that a small, but dedicated band of volunteers have put in over many years.
