Bodmin & Wenford Railway

Discover the excitement and nostalgia of steam travel with a journey back in time on the BODMIN & WENFORD RAILWAY, Cornwall's only full size railway still operated by steam locomotives.

Rellax in style and enjoy a leisurely 13-mile return trip through beautiful countryside, taking in the sights, sounds and smells of a bygone age, as the era of a Cornish branch line in the 1950s reveals itself during the course of your journey.

Trains operate from Bodmin General, the line's main station where free car and coach parking is available, to both Bodmin Parkway station  -  where connections can be made directly with main line railway services (all inclusive through tickets are available)  -  and Boscarne Junction, which is situated directly adjacent to the Camel Trail recreational footpath and cycleway.

Passenger trains operate between mid February and early January, and run daily from 29 May to 3 October 2010.

There is a buffet at both Bodmin General and Bodmin Parkway stations, and most services have a Bar & Buffet on board the train.   There is also a well stocked giftshop at Bodmin General.

Special events are held throughout the year  -  e.g. Steam and Diesel Galas, Steaming Thru the 40s and several family-orientated events, including an Easter Egg-travaganza!, and the visit of both Postman Pat and Paddington Bear to Bodmin!

The Railway also operates a number of steam hauled special trains through the season, including 'Murder Mystery Evening Specials', 'Steam Beer & Jazz' trains, a Luxury Dining Train and, during December, our very popular Santa by Steam specials.

The Bodmin & Wenford Railway looks forward to welcoming you - a great "attracktion" for all the family!
