Welcome to Crowcombe Heathfield Station

 

"The Friends of Crowcombe Heathfield Station" [FoCHS] is a Group to support the West Somerset Railway in maintaining and operating this quintessential Great Western Railway Station. As a member you would receive a regular newsletter, the opportunity to help at the station and take part in social events, or maybe you just want to watch the steam trains of yesteryear go by, whilst sitting in the sunshine, with a cup of tea..


Just by paying an annual subscription of £5, you will be helping to enable the station to be self-financing, and a place for all to enjoy.

MEMBERSHIP NOW OVER 100

Just 3 months after "Friends of Crowcombe Station" was formed membership is now 100 and still rising. This is great support for the station, which is now operating every day trains run. However we are still short of volunteers, so if you can help us, even if it is just one day a month, please contact the station staff. >> Full details on our membership page

We apologise to all those who have kindly sent or allowed their images of the Spring Gala at Crowcombe to be used on this site. We have had a problem with the software of the albums, which we hope to resolve very shortly.

If you can spare a little of your time to help at the station, please have a look at the members page to get a flavour of the type of help that is needed.
