I reckon Lydd Town on the freight only Dungeness branch in Kent would be perfect in terms of the look of the place. Trouble is, it's part of Network Rail, so permission would be needed and 'the diesel' hired in (would need to be main line registered). Only 1 timetabled train in each direction per week I believe - Nuclear Flask train to/from Dungeness Power Station.
Somewhere else to check out is the Churnet Valley Railway as the next extension has track in situ (mothballed) and could perhaps be used.
