The Site Today
The Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway, a heritage line, still run trains from Paignton to Kingswear and operates a ferry across the River Dart, the combined Dart Valley Railway businesses trading as the Dartmouth Steam Railway and Riverboat Company. The ferry service continues to use the pontoon alongside the company's other boat services and those of the rival Greenway Ferry company. The station building continues to be a restaurant owned by the Holland family, but railway and riverboat tickets are available from adjacent kiosks. The station environs also remain Dartmouth's bus terminus and taxi rank.
