What visitors say

Daniel Porteous

We've been a few times in recent years and it's such a great way to spend a couple of hours. Both our children love watching the trains and the owners are absolutely lovely. Couldn't recommend more.

Built over 30 years ago and still operating with it's creators on the footplate! Really great place...trains running every weekend and on public holidays. Super family quiz as you go round which helps you get the most out of your visit. We were there two hours. Don't miss it.
