THE SOUTHWOLD RAILWAY TRUST

The Southwold Railway was a 3ft gauge line running between Halesworth and Southwold in Suffolk, England, a distance of 9 miles. It opened in 1879 and closed in 1929. The line is usually remembered for its tall-chimneyed steam engines, long six-wheeled coaches and steady, if unremarkable, work over 50 years.

The Southwold Railway Trust has been developed to revive the line, continuing the work of the Southwold Railway Trust, which was formed in 1994.
