Ride heritage trains on a community-owned railway operating weekends with volunteer staff offering relaxed journeys and railway heritage experiences.

Alford Valley Community Railway is a volunteer-powered heritage railway owned and operated by the community. Open every weekend with the first train departing at 11:00am from Haughton Station, the railway offers relaxed rides and a unique glimpse into railway history and heritage. Visitors can enjoy scenic train journeys while supporting a local heritage attraction dedicated to preserving railway culture. The venue features period railway infrastructure and operates as both a functional railway and heritage museum experience. The railway welcomes families and railway enthusiasts of all ages to experience the charm of vintage train travel. The attraction collaborates with other local heritage venues including Alford Heritage Museum and the Grampian Transport Museum, making it part of a wider cultural tourism network in the region. Regular events and special operations provide varied experiences throughout the year, with memberships and volunteering opportunities available for those wishing to become more involved.
