We can’t wait to see you all again!
Like many charities, the last year has hit us hard as we rely on income from visitors to maintain & improve our facilities, events & experiences.
We completely understand that at this time, many of our supporters will also be struggling financially, but if you are still in a position to support us and would like to, you can donate by clicking the button below, selecting an amount & checking out.
Even a £1 donation can help. (If the amount you wish to donate is not listed, please use one of the other amounts and add as many as needed into your basket).
Please remember to ‘Gift Aid’ your donation if you can, as it means 25% more to us
You can also support the museum by playing the Essex Lottery – click here for more details
Immerse yourself in a real steam railway museum and get up close and personal to our wide collection of steam trains, diesel locomotives and vintage carriages.
Our atmospheric Victorian buildings, restored trains and working signal boxes tell a unique story of a time when the railway was the largest employer in the region.
We are proud to be an accredited museum and a VisitEngland Quality Assured Visitor attraction.
See the museum really come to life on our event days… with period costume, train rides and much more.
Pull levers, press buttons, dress up as the Station Master and learn about the railways of yesteryear.
Enjoy coffees, cream teas and light lunches on a vintage railway carriage – also open to the general public.
