Chinnor and Princes Risborough Railway

“Just home after a wonderful afternoon with my daughter and grandson. All aboard for the Santa special! We had a wonderful time! The volunteers were so engaging and came with activity sheets and other goodies for the children. On arrival at Chinnor we left the train one carriage at a time and entered the grotto. It was a walk through with lights and decorations then an extensive model railway, ahead of a chat with Mrs Santa and the postbox to send their letter to Santa. Then on to see the big man himself! He was jolly and kind and each child is given a (much better than expected) gift. Then through to the refreshments area where everyone can have complimentary tea, coffee or hot chocolate and a mince pie. Gluten free were available! Cold drinks for the little ones. There is a food van selling other drinks and snacks and that was reasonably priced. Then a wander along the platform, checking out the carriages and the engine before heading back to Risborough. My grandson was delighted with his Rudolph face paint. The whole experience was magical and I can't wait to take him again next year 🎅”

“A wonderful steam train experience. I've been on the steam train 3 times now at different times of the year, including the cream tea. Very well organised, the staff and volunteers are so full of enthusiasm that it's almost contagious - we all love a steam train! Nice journey through beautiful countryside, and the cream tea included delicious freshly made scones. Thank you for a wonderful experience.”

“A really nice and pleasant relaxing ride today on the train….. until the guard on the train made really loud announcements through the train tannoy which was on way to loud! Made me any many passengers jump and cover our ears. The line is about 3 miles each way, about 15 mins. Overall a nice day out”
