Autotrains return to Cornwall!
At the Bodmin Railway Steam Gala
After a 7 year hiatus, our Spring Steam Gala will see the return of Autotrains to Bodmin railway.
Visiting auto-tank engine 1450, courtesy of our friends at the Severn Valley Railway, will be paired with our Autocoach on Friday 16th & Sunday 18th of May at our Spring Steam Gala, a unique sight not to be missed! Autotrains were once a classic sight on Great Western branch lines and we can't wait to see our Autocoach out again. Our Autocoach offers a comfortable ride with the unique view into the drivers, often known as the 'clean end', cab - giving passengers a drivers eye view of the railway ahead.
In addition to running Autotrains, our Autocoach will be paired with our Victorian Saloon on Saturday 17th May to form a 'Heritage' set with our Great Western liveried coaches, and on Sunday 18th May Judy will get a special trip down the line hauling our Autocoach.
Don't miss out on a place to ride the Autotrain, tickets are on sale now at: https://bodminrailway.digitickets.co.uk/category/45971
