Lovely old steam trains, if you book in advance you can have a cream tea whilst travelling on the steam train.

At Bodmin Parkway station you can board the Bodmin and Wenford Railway for an evocative 6.5-mile ride on a train pulled by a steam locomotive. The railway uses sections of the Great Western Railway branch line (1887) and a junction line that opened a year later to link with the Bodmin And Wadebridge Railway (1834). The principal station is further down the line at Bodmin General, and there are services from February to December, with train rides available every day of the week from May to October. When the trains are running you can go inside the old workshops at Bodmin General to check out the engines and carriages. The railway organises themed rides for children and grown-ups, and for something special you could board the luxury Cornish Belle coaches for one of the regular Cornish High Tea or dining services.

A heritage steam railway that runs for six and a half miles, via four stations, between Bodmin General and Boscarne Junction. Cornwall’s only full-size railway still regularly operated by steam locomotives, it’s mostly run by volunteers. Stop off along the line for walks, a visit to a vineyard (Camel Valley), picnics and bike rides.
