Welcome to the GCRN
Formerly known as Nottingham Transport Heritage Centre, The Great Central Railway - Nottingham now offers almost 10 miles of heritage railway running through the beautiful scenery of South Nottinghamshire and North-West Leicestershire.
Heritage Steam & Diesel services re-create the experience of train travel from when it was more than just a way to travel from one place to another.
Entirely staffed by volunteers, all income is used to preserve railway & transport heritage for future generations. The GCRN is a great experience for all the family. Come and enjoy a day with us!
Although most of our site is now currently closed due to the latest lockdown, our Cafe is currently OPEN FOR TAKEAWAY ONLY
In the meantime, we will still be here behind the scenes working on lots of improvements in many areas of the railway in preparation for welcoming you all back on the trains in time for Easter 2021.
