Had a lovely afternoon with our Granddaughter. Haven't been here for years and it's changed so much, lots more to see. Staff are really friendly and welcoming. It was great to visit the museum whilst waiting for the steam train to take us to see Santa. Very well thought out and excellent for youngsters to visit Santa in his grotto. Our granddaughter loved the whole experience and her lovely presents.

I did not see many road signs for the museum, which is situated on a farm. On opening days trains run on the short demonstration line; check the website before you go. The ticket office is an old railway carriage, which doubles up as a buffet, which basically sells hot and cold drinks and a few biscuits; best take a picnic. The two museum buildings are packed with loads of artefacts and if you are interested in that kind of thing, you won't mind paying the 8 admission fee for adults. It will keep you occupied for 2-3 hours.
Brilliant afternoon with our 2 grandsons...age 4 and 2...the winner was of course Santa but equally toy train table which neither of them would leave....it appeared a big hit with all visiting children. The museum itself is amazing with such a collection of memorabilia we need to return to take it all in. Our greeting on arrival was lovely as was the presentation of our tickets..which included tickets to see Santa and drink with snacks ...our train ride to Santa was magical, our grandson has been wanting to get on a train with slamming doors so he got his wish ....
Superb museum with a small running line. Well worth a visit.
Excellent family day out. Great to see these magnificent machines up close.
