This is the official web site of the Epping Ongar Railway Volunteer Society.

Sorry! But the railway is closed until further notice due to engineering and remodelling works. No date for reopening has as yet been announced. Any changes will be noted on the website. Please visit the Volunteer Updates page for the latest news on our progress towards reopening.

The Epping Ongar Railway runs through 6 miles of beautiful Essex countryside. We are mainly surrounded by fields and forest. Rabbits, pheasant and deer are often seen from our trains.

We are very easy to get to, being just off the M25 and M11. We can also be reached by London Underground Central Line to Epping where a vintage bus (Special Event Days only) is often available to convey you to our line (our trains currently stop 1 mile short of Epping). See our 'Find Us' page for more details.

Trains run every Sunday between Ongar and Coopersale using heritage diesel railcars. See our 'Timetable and Fares' page for full details of operating dates and train times. We also operate a series of special events during the year.

All opinions and statements on our web site are that of the volunteers.
