The Workshops Rail Museum

Fantastic museum. Big collection of locomotives and carriages. Our young pre-school kids can't get enough of this place, the kids play area is wonderful for imaginative play and on Thursday mornings they have craft and story time for the youngsters.

Gets quite hot here in the Summer, so I recommend going here in Autumn or Winter. The staff are very friendly and there is a gift shop along with a cafe. The models, trains and other awesome attractions are fun to watch and play with too. This place is also good to watch trains get scrapped if you like that. Trainspotters love this place and this is a good place to get people into trainspotting.

Great venue for a wedding, excellent staff, everyone was so helpful couldn’t do enough for you. They were everywhere you never had to look very far for someone answer any question you had. The food was superb. A big shout out to Sofie who organised us and kept everything on track, and ALL the staff a big thank you for your efforts in making our day special.

Would be great for kids, friendly staff. The taxidermy section was a nice suprise!

Fantastic. Everything well explained, the kids could clamber over things and had a play area. Cafe was ok.
