What Can I Expect

A day out at the Bucks Railway Centre with steam train rides and afternoon tea included! Join the passionate and dedicated team at this Buckinghamshire steam railway near Quainton, where there’s lots to see and do.

Opened in 1868 as the Aylesbury & Buckingham Railway, then later part of the Great Central, passenger services closed in 1963. But ever since then, the railway has been preserved and maintained, with over 170 items of rolling stock and locomotives now calling Bucks Railway Centre home.

The railway is compact and well-maintained, covering 25 acres and proudly boasts regular steam days and themed events in the season. There’s also a miniature ride-on railway and a model railway too.

The jewel in Buckinghamshire steam railway’s crown is the glass-roofed visitor centre and museum. A superb, light and airy space, filled with gleaming locos and wagons, with lots of artefacts and interactive exhibits, all bringing the railway history to life.

These Bucks Railway Centre packages include entrance to the railway, unlimited rides up and down the track on full-size trains, a guided tour of the visitor centre and afternoon tea served in the Oxford Rooms.

There are also opportunities to ride the miniature railway, explore walks around the site, pop your head into the restoration shed and admire the dining car, the travelling post office and the 1935 New York tram (the only one outside the USA!).

Book today and visit the Buckinghamshire steam railway for the day to see all this and more!
