Woodland forest

The woodland forest is the first thing that visitors to the railway see when they embark on their miniature railway ride. The forest covered a good area which hides the railway as it disappears around the first bend, adding a sort of mystery as to where it goes. Most of the trees are large pine while others are a mixture of conifers and fir trees. These trees were planted in the early days of the railway's construction and over time have been looked after and maintained.

A few rare birds were known to be nesting in these trees and a tawny owl often appears in the late hours of the night.
