Tamar Valley minerThe Tamar Valley Line

Let the train take you on a scenic tour of real ales along the Tamar Valley branch line - an area which was once a hive of mining activity, with copper, tin and silver amoung the many metals extracted. One of England's loveliest country branch lines the area is designated as an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty". The 14 mile railway skirts the edge of the magnificent River Tamar and its estuary before crossing the splendid Calstock viaduct joining Devon and Cornwall.
