Nerland Passenger Light Railway

The Nerland Passenger Light Railway (NPLR for short) is a light railway on Nerland. The railway uses part of the former line past the abandoned sanatorium that was closed in 1905. This is the only railway in Nerland that uses electric multiple units (EMUs) as its main motive power.

Founding
The NPLR was almost not founded when the company that was to build the line was given over 10,000UKP to construct a new line in 1986 and three years later, the line was opened and has since used 1960s BR-built electric units.

Motive power
The light railway uses four 1960-introduced British Rail Class 304 (AM4 before TOPS classification) overhead wire units. Like other London, Midland Region EMUs, this class is now extinct.
