Unfortunately never saw a steam train actually working. Old carriages pulled by a diesel engine. Scenery quite nice.

Hello, thank you for your feedback. Due to the heritage nature of the steam train, there are occasions where it has to be replaced at short notice with a diesel engine. We’re sorry for the disappointment, but we hope you still enjoyed yourself and had a great day overall.

This is one of the smallest tracks in the country. As a train ride it is swiftly over. On steam days, the talk at the far end is a good addition to the visit. The benefit on a diesel day is a high frequency of trips giving chances to look back at the track or forward behind the driver ESR makes the best of a limited area. The cafe is good. Not really the best recommendation if a long train ride is wanted but my granddaughter and I enjoyed our time there.

Very poor, location ok. But very short train ride, teas available at site but we were expected to use a facility some miles away from site. Not good enough, overall a waste of money would not use you again.
