Lots of railway models to see and for the enthusiast this must be an amazing place. It is a wondrous place for young and old and they do have little step platforms for young kids to climb on to see, might have to double or triple them up very young kids. The volunteers have obviously contributed to the models, and perhaps that explains why they are a little too precious about the models and can seem officious in saying kids shouldn't climb for a better view. With so many volunteers they could police the models better if they were to be a little more interactive with the public and explain what some of the models show or explain how they produced them - just a suggestion. They allow dogs in, but when we visited there was a rather snarly little dog that was less then welcoming at the front.
A great 'little' set-up and a real shame if it is closing at the end of October as stated on the website. It's the kind of 'poor weather' attraction that unfortunately is fast disappearing. Our children really enjoyed themselves here finding all the features on their checklists. The entrance fee is very modest in the scheme of things as someone has to pay the electricity bill. This and the nearby reptilarium are well worth a visit.
Prices for "everyone aged 4-94" as the message outside says is £3.80 per person. Its pretty small, but a fair way to amuse the kids for a half hour or so. Steps for kids to be able to see up and into the model railway. Its a bit Heath Robinson in construction; based in a small warehouse/large shed, but I'm sure the volunteers ? probably do their best with the funds available. Free parking outside.
Any fan of trains is going to love this little attraction. It's a huge model H0 scene with lots of trains moving around the entire scene. Well worth £3.50. My four year old Thomas fan could not contain himself :
This little model railway was a big hit with our 3 young boys age 5 6 and 8. We love the selection of trains and detailed set up really an amazing place and worth the visit!!
Great model railway, kids really enjoyed the visit and the spot the things quiz. Two large layouts one UK and one European.
My son couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Thomas. A well constructed model railway. Worth a visit.
Absolutely fantastic kids and grown ups loved it. Wonderfully staffed and a nice cafe next door.
Lovely place. Great effort to make the model railway a success. Well done.
Good model railway but entrance fee is a bit steep
