Last December, children from far and wide descended into the sleepy village of Quainton to visit the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre. A magical day was had by all that attended with fantastic entertainment and the opportunity to meet Father Christmas aboard his little blue steam engine.

Here is a selection of the comments left by some of our visitors.

''Very impressed with the enthusiasm of your wonderful staff. Found the whole experience amazing. The children had a brilliant time''.

''What a 1st Class day out. We have enjoyed the high standard of entertainment from the Thomas ride, to the magic show & mini train ride. The restaurant provided us with excellent food, even the coffee was good & homemade mince pies!......''

''We will return in the Spring for one of the best days out for children Nationwide!''

''Very impressed with cleanliness of whole Centre ... Excellent value for money & extra special at Christmas''.
