Welcome to the website of Rhyl Miniature Railway

Our railway first opened on 1st May 1911, and has been delighting visitors for over a hundred years! On 28th-30th May 2011 we held our Centenary Gala, our biggest Gala ever, reuniting the six Barnes Atlantic locomotives.

We offer a nostalgia experience suitable for children of all ages. Most of our visitors begin by enjoying a train ride on what is now Britain's oldest miniature line. Our steam trains were built in Rhyl during the 1920s, and so have been hauling passengers around Marine Lake for the last eighty years!

Upon returning to ‘Central Station’, find out more about our story in our museum, where there are hands on exhibits to amuse the younger ones.

Our ticket office sells tea and coffee, confectionery and a good range of childrens’ gifts. The station, museum and toilets are open on every day that trains are operating. We have good facilities for disabled visitors, look here for our Access Statement.
