Click on the links on the left to discover the Bodmin & Wenford Railway Trains operate from Bodmin General - the line’s main station where free car and coach parking is available - to Bodmin Parkway - where connections can be made directly with main line railway services - and Boscarne Junction on the popular Camel Trail. Our main station at Bodmin General is situated on the B3268 Lostwithiel Road, approximately half a mile from the centre of Bodmin, and well signposted from the A38/A30/A389 leading into the town – just follow the brown tourist signs with the steam engine logo. Alternatively, you can travel by main line train to Bodmin Parkway, where cross platform interchange with our trains is available. Bodmin is around 27 miles from Truro, 33 miles from Plymouth and 23 miles from Newquay and conveniently situated in the heart of Cornwall, accessible from both the north and south coasts. Passenger train services operate between February and December, and run daily from late May to early October. There are normally between four and six return trains each day between Bodmin General and Bodmin Parkway/Boscarne Junction. The majority of services are steam hauled, though trains on Saturdays are normally diesel hauled (steam in August). There is a Buffet at both Bodmin General and Bodmin Parkway stations, and most services have a Buffet and Bar on board the train. There is also a giftshop at Bodmin General. Special events are also held throughout the year – Steam and Diesel Galas, Steaming Thru the 40s, a Branch Line Weekend and several family-orientated events, including an “Easter Egg-travaganza” and the visit of Paddington Bear to Bodmin!
