Autistic heaven!

A huge site full of all types of train, from massive steam engines to a mock up of the Japanese Bullet Train. Every now and then you can get to see the Hogwarts Express too. In the summer, the Flying Scotsman pulls the Scarborough Express for a day at the coast.

Staff are used to youngsters with ASD. If you let them know in advance (or at least on arrival) they can organise queue jumping, and will be very tolerant of the fact that your child may be incapable of getting off the miniature steam train!

Lots of buttons to press and interactive activities, along with the balcony where you can watch real trains coming and going from York Station. It’s difficult to leave…

One word of advice: if you have a disabled parking badge, remember to bring it - parking costs £5 otherwise.

Definitely recommended.
