Welcome to Didcot Railway Centre

See our unique collection of Great Western Railway steam engines, coaches, wagons, buildings and small relics; and a recreation of Brunel's broad gauge railway. Join us in our rural setting based around the original 1930s engine shed.

Why not take a look at our new promotional video clip?

The Railway Centre is open every weekend throughout the year (other than 25/26 December 2010) and is open daily from 29 May to 12 September.
