Stansted Park Light Railway
The Stansted Park Light Railway is a 7+1⁄4 in (184 mm) gauge miniature railway in the grounds of Stansted House in Hampshire. The railway opened in Easter 2005 and is designed to attract more visitors to the House located in a Forest near Havant. The railway uses locomotives and carriages designed and built by the railways volunteers. The railway is rapidly expanding. The new extension is now complete and incorporates a 12-foot span girder bridge. The new loco shed is nearly finished, requiring doors and windows. The railway has succeeded in its aim of attracting more visitors, especially to the Garden Centre. Stansted House once had a bus service operated by First Hampshire & Dorset but was withdrawn because of lack of users.
