Braking News! Sentinel Steam Loco 7109 'Joyce' be providing brake van rides at Princes Risborough during our Steam Gala (30 October-1 November). These will take place between departures and arrivals on Platform 4 and are only available to Gala ticket-holders.

The locomotive is unusual in having vertical water-tube boiler supplying transversely mounted cylinders that transmit power to the wheels via gears and chains. Not to be missed!

🤝 Exciting news from the line!
