Paddington at Didcot
Saturday 23rd July - Meet Paddington Bear - Unlimited steam train rides: 200 years of railway heritage & much more!
Explore the unique collection of Great Western Railway steam locomotives, carriages, wagons, buildings and small artefacts at our 21 acre living museum set around the original 1932 Engine Shed
Great Afternoon Out - Amazing afternoon at Didcot.
- MooandLu - Bexhill-on-Sea - June 2021
Quite a lot to see and you have unlimited train rides up and down the track.
Enjoyed the museum and signalling centre.
Many photos taken.
I would say if you took a slow walk you could do the experience in a few hours so not an all day thing.
Also right next to Didcot railway station so transport links are great.
Staff super friendly especially the staff member in the museum.
Would like to go again.
