To Know
Our serviceable steam engines are stored in the Locomotive Running Shed, situated on the adjacent side of the main running line near to the signal box, but the building is not normally accessible to the public.
Relax in style and enjoy a leisurely 13-mile round trip through beautiful Cornish countryside, taking in the sights, sounds and smells of a bygone age, as the era of a Cornish branch line in the 1950s reveals itself during the course of your journey.
Trains operate from Bodmin General, the principal station where coach and car parking is available, to both Bodmin Parkway station where connections can be made directly with mainline railway services and Boscarne Junction, which is situated directly adjacent to the Camel Trail recreational footpath and cycleway.
Join us for a varied and interesting programme of special events and special trains, which are an important part of the Railways calendar.
