'Steam Day' Buckingham Railway

Steaming Days: This is when we have a full-size steam train in action, ready to take you for a ride up and down our track! We also have miniature ride-on trains which are run by our sister Society VAMES, Also, the rest of the site is open including the Railway Museum, the Visitor Centre with Gift Shop and Railway Cafe, and the model trains are usually running too.

 

The highlight of the day is the steam train ride!

You do not need to book a specific time for your train ride. Our steam train runs up and down the track all day long and you can take a journey as many times as you like, whenever you like! We are officially a steam museum and only have a short running line, about 1/2 mile, so the train goes up and down this length of track twice before stopping at the same platform as where you started. We have it under good authority from those who visit us regularly, that this is the perfect length for families with young children who have a tendancy to get bored if the train journey is much longer!
