Launceston Steam Railway?
Long time since I was there - I think it was called the Lappa Valley Railway back then

The Launceston Steam Railway and Lappa Valley are completely separate entities - but sadly neither depicted here.

Correct! This is at the furthest extent of the 'north' loop where there are a couple of short lengths of track that appear to go nowhere!
Also, it is half price entry all of the 2025 Summer Season - not just on that one day.
I visited with my wife, daughter, son and granddaughter. Although we live not 20 miles from Beer, I hadn't visited the attraction since my son was the same age as his own daughter is now. The layout of the miniature railway is much changed in those intervening years!

Spent half a day there last summer'ish.
Allegedly for 4 year old grandson (but mainly me).
Staff were wonderful, weather was good.
We really enjoyed it there, and lovely gardens to boot.
