Our famous Bickington Steam Railway is ready and waiting for new passengers to board and enjoy the sights. The 101/4 inch gauge railway provides transport for visitors between the main car park and the leisure park. “Riverside Station” is adjacent to the main car park at the front of Trago and has 3 tracks which end in a turntable. From here, trains cross a road by an automatic level crossing and run alongside a river, before crossing the river. The railway then joins the original circuit, which loops around and across itself several times. At one point there are 6 parallel tracks, all on different levels.

The second station “Trago Central” has two platforms and is situated in the Family Fun Park. After leaving “Trago Central” trains pass over an impressive 23 pier viaduct and pass the workshop & engine shed before heading back to “Riverside station”, where the locomotive is turned and run round the train. Goose Glen Halt now in operation – stops at the leisure carpark where customers can alight for the Eagle Karts, Swan Boats, Trawlers and Bumper Boats.
