点评:Went for the train driving experience with my family as a 40th birthday present. We all had a great time. My 6 year old enjoyed the little park area before and after. Reasonably priced little shop, with a lovely lady behind the desk.
The train driving experience was made even more special by the immense hospitality of the train driver Pete, an absolutely delightful fella whom it was a pleasure to talk to and learn how to control the locomotive.
Driving the train was very enjoyable, and educational too. As a boiler technician myself, it was great to chat with Pete about the similarities between industrial boilers and that of a small locomotive.
It's not a full day out, and not even an afternoon, but if you tie it into a trip to sherwood forest, or some other nearby attractions, it's well worth doing.
Really pleased I got the opportunity to do this.
I recommend this to any steam train enthusiasts.
翻译:我为了庆祝40岁生日,和家人一起体验了开火车的项目。我们都玩得非常开心。我6岁的孩子也很喜欢体验前后的那个小公园区。那里的纪念品店价格合理,店员也是一位非常和蔼可亲的女士。
铁路司机皮特的热情款待让这次体验更加难忘。他真是个讨人喜欢的人,能和他聊天并学习如何操控机车真是件乐事。
驾驶火车的过程也乐趣无穷。既有趣又具有教育意义。作为一名锅炉技术员,能和皮特聊聊工业用锅炉与小型机车上的锅炉之间的相似之处,真是太棒了。
虽然这不算一整天的行程,甚至连一个下午都不到,但如果你把这次参观和去舍伍德森林或其他附近的景点结合起来,那就非常值得了。
很高兴自己有机会参加这次活动。
我向所有蒸汽火车爱好者推荐这里。
