This is one end of the 15" gauge steam railway that brings visitors from the car park and is the only access route for paying visitors. The locomotive is Muffin. This is an 0-6-0 tender locomotive designed by David Curwen and built in 1967 by Berwyn Engineering of Chippenham. There are three railways here, all of differing gauges and with different forms of motive power.
