Bodmin and Wenford Railway.

The Bodmin & Wenford Railway is Cornwall's only standard gauge railway still operated by steam locomotives. Note that some services are operated by heritage diesel locomotives.

Enjoy the 13 mile round trip through the beautiful Cornish countryside, taking in the sights, sound 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.
