Barrington Light Railway no website?

I didn't know there was 'Open Day on Saturday 26th September 2015', which I have missing it, I though I'll better find on a website for next running day but no address line can be found?

Is this really not a preserved line?

To my knowledge it was a one-off. This is an operational landfill site, taking waste to infill the old quarry

It's a working industrial branch - previously it served the quarry and accompanying cement plant until those closed in 2009, and has now been reactivated to partially infill the quarry with waste.

There are a few trains each week, hauled by class 66s and operated by DBS (and some GBRf IIRC?). In this video you can see the normal stock alongside the saddle tank brought in for the open day.

Definitely not a preserved line - a few people have suggested creating one after the quarry infilling is completed, but not with any serious plans to my knowledge.

Living locally I think the possibility of turning it into a preserved industrial railway would be a brilliant idea, I for one would support it.
