So sad it all had to end. I recognise most of the lads there, having been up most Sundays for a round 12 to 15 years.
Dinting was a great place to be back then. Happy memories. Thanks for posting, much appreciated. ❤

I recognise an old friend, Ged Cleary, with his huge smile 😃 at the table. I often went up with him to help out, and he would come back to our house just down the road for tea. Great times!

I wonder what will become of the site. Leave it to nature, I guess..

Been there many times! Even got a few sneaky footpaths rides! Such lovely memories!

We lived within walking distance of Dinting from 1980 until after it closed. We have great memories of the place and our children loved to visit it. We were working on a N-gauge model based on the site but after the closure we couldn't find the heart to carry on with the project given how the closure had come about.

That’s heartbreaking to see the what’s all is left of the Dinting heritage railway.

Very good, Happy Memories, and recognition of all the hard work and time you allgave to make is great place to be, on on trips from the midlands to Manchester we always came via Buxton, and always called in to Dinting.

We used to holiday in the area in the seventies and visited about three times. Always had a lovely atmosphere.
