About this activity
Great Central Railway Nottingham offers 10 miles of heritage railway running through the beautiful scenery of South Nottinghamshire and North-West Leicestershire! Services are pulled by heritage Steam and Diesel locomotives, re-creating the experience of train travel from a time when it was more than just a means to get from one place to another.
Great Centre Railway Nottingham is also home to static displays, a large miniature Railway, model Railways, and Road Transport Collection. This is rare for a UK attraction and gives kids the perfect opportunity to learn something new whilst having fun with friends and family.
As if this wasn't fun enough, there's also an exciting play area with slides. Enjoy exploring this after browsing all the railway sights and then head to the cafe for a snack! Or, bring your own meal and enjoy the picnic area. The Great Central Railway (Nottingham) is a great experience for all the family. Go and enjoy a day with them!
