The perfect gift or treat for a locomotive enthusiast!

 

Imagine........

The distinctive sound of a steam locomotive as it climbs the 1 in 56 incline back to Cranmore Station and the roaring furnace firing the engine.

Our Driver Taster Experience gives you the chance to enjoy the excitement of driving and firing a steam locomotive, under the guidance of our skilled and dedicated footplate crews.

*If you have a voucher, the voucher's expiration date is the date by which you must have booked your experience and is not the date of the experience itself.  If you cannot see a date which works for you and/or your voucher, please call us on 01749 880417 to discuss your options.* 

 
£295   1.5 HOUR SESSION

During your session you will:

  • Be under the guidance of our expert footplate crew who will share their knowledge and experience with you
  • Take a turn driving the steam engine only  (not with the passenger carriages attached), one way over the line (approximately 2 miles of driving)

Each session is booked on an individual basis so you will receive the undivided attention and instruction of the footplate crew.

All participants will receive 2 free day rover tickets for family and friends, plus a commemorative certificate from the ESR on completion.
