Our Ripley

The ‘West Shed Experience’ is the home of The Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust. The purpose-built West Shed houses our collection of historic steam locomotives and railway coaches. The history of our exhibits is told through display boards, audio commentary domes, animatronic figures and a mini-cinema with short films to watch. Visitors can also view the active workshop where our locomotives are maintained from the safety of the viewing gallery above.
