Take advantage of our special weekend services to enjoy Woodworks! and Bletchley Park, and go on a railway ramble!
Welcome to the
website of the Marston Vale Community Rail Partnership, the home of
the Marston Vale Line on the internet!
The Marston Vale railway is a small rural railway running through
the heart of the beautiful Marston Vale countryside between Bedford
in Bedfordshire, and Bletchley in Buckinghamshire. As well as being
the main public transport link in the area, the hourly train
service provides access to jobs, schools, and leisure facilities in
the Marston Vale.
On this website, you can find out about the rail service, buy
tickets, and find out what to do in the countryside and in the
town, among other things! You can also discover a little
about the Marston Vale Community Rail Partnership (that's us).
We hope you have a pleasant visit, and look forward to seeing you
on board soon!
