We're excited to announce that this year, alongside the Bodmin based fleet of heritage diesels, we'll be joined by 26007; the first of its class to visit Cornwall. Join us for a weekend of intensive timetables, clocking up plenty of miles! More details to follow soon!
On 5th October, get hands on inspired by this year's Bodmin-wide theme of building, making, playing AND the heritage railway location and awesome steam and diesel engines. Follow in the footsteps of Trevithick and Brunel with engineering and construction challenges suitable for young and old steam enthusiasts to join forces¬!
"Oh help! Oh no! It’s a Gruffalo!" The Gruffalo will be strolling out of the deep dark wood to join us at Bodmin & Wenford Railway on 28th and 29th September.
What better way to spend a weekend than a trip on a steam train! We’re giving you even more excuse to visit with half price tickets to travel and FREE travel for children on the 26th & 27th October.
Steam & Cream train trips depart from Bodmin General Station. Although the train departs at 2pm, we’d ask passengers to arrive 20-30 minutes before departure to check in and board the train.
