Welcome to Buckinghamshire Railway Centre
Buckinghamshire Railway Centre

Buckinghamshire Railway Centre is a working steam museum where you can step back in time as you view the giants of the steam age displayed on our spacious 25 acre site. Exhibits range from express passenger locomotives to the humble shunting engine. Carriages include a dining car from the royal train of 1901 as well as another reputedly used by General Eisenhower and Winston Churchill amongst others for wartime planning meetings. Smaller items are not forgotten with many exhibits providing a snapshot of how the coming of the railways changed the way of life of the entire country.
