Devon Railway Centre, Railway museum in Bickleigh, England
The Devon Railway Centre maintains two operational railways on the former Cadeleigh station site, featuring a narrow gauge line and a miniature railway system.
The centre occupies the grounds of a Great Western Railway branch station from the Exe Valley Railway, which connected Exeter to Dulverton until its closure.
The museum contains the largest collection of narrow gauge railways in South West England, including the 1912 Orenstein & Koppel steam locomotive No 14.
The facility includes indoor play areas with railway-themed activities, a model railway exhibition, and Buffers café serving meals throughout operating hours.
Visitors can experience unlimited rides on both the 2-foot narrow gauge railway and the 7.25-inch miniature railway within the same location.
