Chinnor & Princes Risborough Railway Is a Heritage railway running from Chinnor Village, on Oxfordshire, to Princes Risborough Town, in Buckinghamshire. We run a mix of Steam and Diesel Trains, with special dates for Cream Teas, Fish & Chip Quiz nights, Murder Mysteries, Teddy Bears, Easter and the School Holidays, not forgetting Halloween spooky trains and the very Popular Santa specials at Christmas. The railway is self funding by an army of totally unpaid, dedicated, volunteers. We adhere to National Railways standards with in-house training courses.

ADVANCE BOOKING ESSENTIAL. Didcot Railway Centre is a living history museum of the Great Western Railway set in 21 acres alongside Didcot Parkway Station. From Brunel's Broad Gauge to the modern trains running past, Didcot Railway Centre's unique collection of buildings, locomotives, carriages, wagons and other artefacts shows how the Great Western Railway developed to be the premier railway company of the 1940s.

I currently use Chiltern Railways on the Mainline Route between London Marylebone and the West Midlands. During my journeys, I have had experiences on both Class 168 DMU services, as well as the Mainline services, using High-Speed diesel locomotives. Personally, I found the Mainline trains surprisingly modern, considering the age of the rolling stock - with a cabin that looks more like a lounge than a train with low, supportive seating. Considering the price, compared to services by Virgin or even LNWR out of London Euston, this is really impressive. Unfortunately, the low-speed services do not quite match the Mainline’s quality. Naturally, there are an enormous number of stations on the route and Chiltern Railways seem to pop up in every major town across Central England, but the ageing Class 165/168 units are closing in on their expiry dates. Despite Chiltern’s attempts to modernise the trains with executive-looking seat upholstery, WiFi and chil.tv onboard entertainment (which all work fantastically on long trips), the signs of wear and tear are common - whether it be broken panels in the bathroom, cracked mirrors, graffiti or faulty plug sockets in carriages, the trains could use some TLC. However, this is irrelevant to me for the reliability of services that Chiltern Railways offer. As a smaller franchise, the services out of Marylebone are almost always on time, with a wider network and better pricing scheme than most of the heavyweight intercity companies, like Virgin Trains, LNER and LNWR. It appears that Chiltern Railways has already realised this though, with clever advertising stunts at Birmingham New St. and International, stations that host most of Virgin’s services. The introduction of e-tickets are a great movement towards greener train travel, reducing the amount of paper used by travellers.
