The Dean Forest Railway is a 4 ¹⁄₄-mile long heritage railway that runs between Lydney and Parkend in the Forest of Dean. The route was part of the former Severn and Wye Railway which ran from Lydney to Cinderford. They offer experience days that are both family and dog friendly. During the summer they offer a fish and chip dinner experience and during the winter offer a mince pie experience (due to food on offer these experiences are not dog friendly).
