Our steam locomotive, Thomas Wicksteed, will be welcoming passengers this May half term! £1 per ride with a general admission ticket. Dates to be announced.
Get creative and join us in the Waterworks Gallery for some train-themed crafts, including a competition to design a limited-edition train ticket. The chosen designs will be used on Thomas Wicksteed rides in March!
The Twickenham & District Model Railway Club will be displaying in the Babcock room on our Steam Up weekend of 22-23 February. They will have two layouts on display, one that will be an interactive experience for guests to ‘have-a-go’ at a shunting puzzle against the clock. This is a great opportunity to learn more about modelling, and chat with some very talented and passionate modellers.
