Corris Steam Railway Museum and Railway — Attraction in Corris

Absolutely fantastic experience, the volunteers were all amazing, full of passion and enthusiasm for keeping this heritage railway alive. Andrew, the driver and instructor, made our Sons day by inviting him to assist with changing the slip switches to bring the engine around to the front of the carriages.
