Rarely does one see such dedication as is so clear in the volunteers who keep this astonishing service alive. For a single ticket you not only gain access to the whole facility, but you can ride as many of the train services as you like! The restorations all take place on-site; we were looking around the engine rooms and had the good fortune to meet the man who actually restores the engines, and he was happy to spend some time talking about the various engines, the difficulties in the restoration process, how things like colour schemes are chosen; massively interesting. The train journey itself gives some beautiful views of the surrounding countryside, as well as the experience of travelling on a genuine piece of British history.
Thank you for an amazing experience!

Enjoyable 15min trundle up the line through the Mendip hills...then pulled back because the steam engine needed a breather. The station is riddled with Victorian touches. The metalwork on the toilet facade at the end of the platform is amazing! Chuck in a kids play area, model shop, coffee shack and very friendly/helpful staff, overall nice day out.
Woo woo choo choo! Gotta love the smell of a steam train
Great little place to visit! Not too expensive, a short ride but nice area and very friendly and helpful staff. I'd definitely recommend coming here.
Good nostalgic time for those interested in steam trains. Journey length is limited but still worth the visit.
