WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
Railway fans and curious adventurers can get behind the controls of a Type 4 diesel locomotive on the scenic Chinnor & Princes Risborough Railway.
The experience begins with a warm welcome from the railway crew and a safety briefing before heading onto the footplate. Then comes the exciting bit: taking the controls and driving around four miles of heritage railway, with approximately 2,500 horsepower at their command.
TELL ME MORE
The drive lasts around 30 minutes, with an expert crew on hand throughout. There’s something rather special about the combination of vintage railway atmosphere, serious mechanical power and lovely Oxfordshire scenery. Whether the recipient knows their locomotives inside out or simply fancies trying something gloriously different, this is a gift with plenty of character.

Best 2 hours spent learning about aromas, essential oils and natural dyes, and you get a set of soaps at the end!
Beautifully decorated for Christmas, amazing service with a smile. Delicious savoury and sweet delights with tasty accompanying teas and coffee. Would highly recommend
What a lovely mindful evening and such a calm, kind and encouraging teacher. I can't wait to make more candles.
Had a great time at cinnamon kitchen So much I have purchased another voucher for a return visit
My sister and I had a fantastic time at the drawing class, the miniature donkeys were called Gilbert and Sullivan and they were adorable. They munched on hay all the time and were so good. Jenny was lovely and very encouraging and we had a great time. We will definately be doing this again. I have attached my drawing of them (it won't be sold at Sotherby's any time soon!!!) but is a lovely reminder of a special day.
