About
One of the big draws is the working railway. It is a favourite with children and train fans of every age.
Away from the tracks, the site has trails that wind through the forest and around the grounds. They are good for an easy walk, and they are popular with birders.
The centre runs special seasonal events through the year. The Christmas Express runs on select evenings from November 27 to December 23, a festive evening outing for families.
Opening days and hours vary by season, with regular visiting days in spring, summer and early fall and evening events in October and the holiday season, so check the current schedule before you go. Group visits and school trips are also welcome.
