Great Central Railway - Nottingham

The Great Central Railway (Nottingham) offers 10 miles of heritage railway running through the beautiful scenery of South Nottinghamshire.

Services are pulled by heritage Steam and Diesel locomotives, re-creating the experience of train travel from a time when it was more than just a means to get from one place to another.

The railway is entirely owned and operated by a dedicated group of volunteers who continue to develop the line as one of Nottinghamshire's premier visitor attractions.

We actively encourage new members and volunteers to get involved with the maintenance and operation of our railway Check-out the "Volunteer" link above and the pages for the Structures Group, S&T Group and Diesel Group

We are also home to static displays, a large Miniature Railway, Model Railways, Road Transport Collection and Play Area.

With a Cafe and well stocked Gift Shop as well, we have something for all the family.
