We try to ensure that steam trains run as advertised. The Corris Railway may have to cancel, alter or suspend the published timetable with or without notice, or to use a diesel locomotive in the unlikely event of a breakdown or crew shortage. It accepts no liability for any loss, inconvenience, disappointment or delay caused by this.
We regret that cancellations can only be entertained with more than 7 days to go before travel and that any cancellation will be subject to a 20% administration fee.

Your Railway for a Day
Would you and a small group of similarly-minded friends like to spend a few hours trying your hands at driving steam, diesel and battery powered electric locomotives on part of the oldest narrow gauge railway in Mid Wales?
We can offer the Experience Day on days when normal services are not operating (see www.corris.co.uk for timetable arrangements). Prices are £400 for a diesel day or £500 for a steam day. Maximum 6 participants – or you can book the day for yourself or a loved one as a special experience if you wish.
As well as driving and firing locomotives you can cover some track that our passenger trains do not traverse, spend time in the signalbox and work with the guard. And help to move the loco on the new traverser at Corris station.
Participants should be physically fit and must not have consumed alcohol or drugs in the eight hours before the day begins.
For enquiries and bookings please contact Graeme Jolley at Corris Railway Railway For A Day Bookings
Small Railway with Big Ambitions
We have big projects on the go: extending the line southwards to Tan y Coed Forest Amenity Site, re-developing Corris Station, and building a second new steam locomotive. Visitors can see parts of the new loco and four replica Victorian carriages in our workshops. Also see a model of the proposed new station at Corris in the museum.
Please help us to develop the Railway by slipping a donation into one of the collecting boxes at Corris and Maespoeth Stations. Every penny counts. Thank you.
Track our work in progress at www.corris.co.uk – updated most weeks. Follow us on Twitter & Facebook.
