Railway Carriage Museum

Brilliant place to relax, my son loves it, very fab tea rooms x

Brilliant food, interesting railway carriage with model trains, outdoor seating to eat at.

Nice workers

A great place to take young grandchildren.There is a model railway in the carriage.Toys for children to play with.A cafe is on the platform.

Lovely carriage opened by volunteers. Our boys loved the model train inside.

My daughter and I love going here as we enjoy geocaching and there are plenty around this area. The food and cakes at the railway cafe are amazing. Nice size portions too. Well worth a visit. The photo is of the walk or cycle trail all the way to Dunmow. Its so lovely on a walk or cycle depending on your preference.

The carriage museum is run by a local volunteer group called the Friends of the Flitch Way. It is split into two sections.The first contains a working railway model of Rayne Station along with numerous photos and objects from the railway line that used to run between Braintree and Bishops Stortford.The second part has a seating area and you are allowed to take light refreshments from the Booking Hall Cafe and enjoy them in the carriage whilst learning about the Flitch Way Country Park and the work the volunteers do to help maintain it.The museum is normally open at the weekends between 11 and 3 and often on a Tuesday and Thursday in the school summer holidays.It is good to combine with a walk or cycle along the Flitch Way.

A little hidden gem
