The Hampton and Kempton Waterworks Railway, known as south west London’s best kept secret, is kept running through the work of volunteers.
They run one of the few narrow-gauge railways operating within the M25 and it is open every Sunday.
The railway and the educational centre is operated solely by a group of volunteers, who operate the trains and organise events for the benefit of families and the local community.
The railway is embarking on a £1.8 million restoration campaign to reinstate the early 20th century industrial railway.
They hope the project will provide a unique railway experience that will attract a mix of enthusiasts, local families and educationalists, who will help to keep the rich industrial history alive.
