The Wensleydale Railway is a member of ACoRP, the Association of Community Railway Partnerships.

ACoRP is a federation of over 60 community rail partnerships and rail promotion groups. 

Community rail partnerships are a bridge between the railway and local communities.  They are about positive development, bringing together a wide range of interests along the rail corridor. Some partnerships have been instrumental in achieving spectacular increases in use of rail through innovative marketing, improved services and better station facilities.

Their work includes improving bus links to stations, developing walking and cycling routes, bringing station buildings back to life, art and education projects and organising special events which promote the railway and its relevance to the community.

ACoRP publishes a quarterly magazine which reports on the current activities of its members, partnerships and community rail lines, and each edition includes a feature article on a topical subject.
