For customers travelling by car, please note that there is no car parking available at Leeming Bar Station or on the street outside. There is, however, very limited parking available at the O’Briens Fine Foods factory (formerly Vale of Mowbray). Their main carpark is on Leases Road (///jumped.tile.balconies) and there is also a small overflow carpark situated immediately behind the factory site at Low Street (///breakaway.bucket.interests), off Leases Road. Alternatively, you can board the trains at Bedale Station (DL8 1AW) where there is ample parking in the town.
The ticket price is £25 for adults and £5 for children (aged 3-15). Children under 16 must be accompanied by a paying adult. Booking is essential to avoid disappointment.
Tickets are day rovers, allowing you all-day travel on any service from any station on the day. We have 3 trains per day, so the choice is yours!
All passengers will be served a complimentary individually wrapped mince pie and a hot drink (tea, coffee or hot chocolate). There will also be the option of a gluten free mince pie or a flapjack, and children can receive a Fruit Shoot or water.
