Let Us Tell You Why
Woody’s Train is one of the happiest and most loved rides at Gypsy Wood. For many years, Woody has been chugging along, giving lots of smiles and laughter to children and families.
But after so many adventures, Woody is starting to feel a little tired. His track is getting old, and over the next few years it will need to be completely replaced so he can keep running safely.
Replacing the track is a very big job, and as a small family business, we need a little help to make it happen. That is why we now ask for a small extra charge to ride on Woody’s Train.
Every penny from your ticket goes into the Save Woody Fund, which helps us fix the track and keep Woody running for many more magical journeys.
Thank you for helping to look after Woody — he can’t wait to take you for a ride!
Outdoor Garden Railway
Gypsy Wood’s ‘G’ scale garden railway is a long established favourite with visitors of all ages, having been built at the beginning in 2004 and substantially expanded and modified since then. A variety of model trains running on over half a kilometre of track. They travel over and under bridges, go through tunnels and pass lots of buildings that are all placed in a beautiful garden setting which includes a quarry, mountain railway, large central station and a long bridge over a pond.
Kids aged 9 to 90 will love the interactive play buttons so they can move Thomas the Tank engine and his friends.
