South Devon Railway


The South Devon Railway is a fantastic, steamy day out! It’s one of the West Country’s top tourist attractions and will appeal to everyone in the family. Come and enjoy an outstanding seven-mile train ride behind a magnificent GWR steam engine between Buckfastleigh and Totnes, along one of England’s most beautiful stretches of river. There is loads to see and do. We have a play area, gardens, riverside picnic area, museum, workshop, refreshment rooms and a great gift shop. Buckfastleigh station, just off the A38, midway between Exeter and Plymouth, has plenty of free car parking. The SDR station at Totnes is a short walk from Totnes town and the main line station. We’re part of 3 Great Attractions 1 Amazing Day with brilliant value joint tickets for Dartmoor Otters & Buckfast Butterflies and the Totnes Rare Breeds Farm. Come and see us!
