Absolutely fantastic. This place is amazing. The staff were absolutely fantastic, they clearly went out of there way to make the experience better and the trains and coaches were so well maintained. The ride is beautiful and was made all the better by the beer on the evening ale train as well as the chips! Overall I would 100% love to return and it has made me want to get back into steam preservation after a long break!

Enjoyed my day at the heritage railway. A classic red bus took us from Epping station to the railway. Enjoyed trips on the steam and diesel locomotives. Would go again.

The train station's entrance room where you can purchase tickets is very quaint and cosy with its active fire place, the tickets booth and a few seats around.
The platforms and the trains are beautifully kept. There is a carriage with a bar in the train and parties like birthdays, fish & chips lunches, etc. can be organised.
The journey from Ongar to Epping is not very long, I'd say 30 min for a return at a gentle pace.
At the train station, there is a bar in an old carriage with tables and seats, and a large uncovered terrace. You can also purchase snacks there.
There is of course a gift shop with the usual magnets and all the little souvenirs you can buy in this kind if place. It is accessible for wheelchairs, as well as the clean and modern toilets.
It wasn't very busy the day we went but it seems that the car park is quite large but no tarmac, low slung cars beware..
Some vintage bright red double decker bus can take you to Epping for a small cost.
Finally, the staff, mostly volunteers, dressed in genuine uniforms is very helpful and chatty. Some have an extensive knowledge of steamed trains and local railways which they enjoy to share.
This is a good place to bring children, but not too young as there is not much for them to run freely and you don't want to worry all day that something happens to them!
All in all, it is well worth a visit which should keep you busy for at least half a day.

Brilliant day out, excellent atmosphere and period decoration. Entering the ticket office you may be greeted by a roaring coal fire.

Being a heritage station to interior, ticket office and platform very much harks back to yester year.

A good variety of locomotives and carriages to interest Diesel and Steam fans. My first visit was for the 60th Anniversary commemorative Class 37 diesel running day. The rolling stock is comfortable and with slam doors brings back lots of memories.

There is a collaboration with the London Bus Company which enables a swift and nostalgic shuttle ride from Epping Underground to North Weald. Having been here twice I rode on a Routemaster and also a Leyland National.

Dog friendly too which is a boon.

Came today with our two youngest grandchildren to meet the Gruffalo. Our grandchildren had a good time having photos taken with him. We had a train and bus ride. All the staff were very friendly and polite. Worth a visit
