Newest Review: ... romance always leads us to discuss the possibility for next time! The halt serves a nature trail through the woods and Kelling Caravan Park. Because it's on a steep gradient steam trains do not stop here on the journey to Holt, but it's a request stop when going the other way - guess I've always fancied flagging down a steam train. Too much time watching Jenny Agutter in the Railway ... more
