We are a volunteer environmental group - Our aim to Entertain and Educate about our Environment
The Railworld Wildlife Haven was created by volunteers, primarily as habitat, but also an intriguing exciting place to explore and learn about our natural world. An ideal place for the whole family to picnic and enjoy our inner city refuge - Plus we have film shows and 2.5 metre Globe in our Environment Centre.
We also have over 2,000 sqft of model railways and a giant 140 Tonne Pacific locomotive from Sweden awaiting under restoration.
Only 10 minutes from the Peterborough City Centre - See map - Free car park for patrons - Follow the brown puffer train signs - Access by car via Fair Meadow Car Park (PE2 8AT) - Just off Oundle Road - Near the Railway over-bridge - Our post code is PE2 9NR - BUT not very good for satnav! - Go to website www.railworld.org.uk and download free map!
