Half Day Portable Steam Engine Experience for Two at Hollycombe | Luxury Trains and Heritage Steam | Virgin Experience Days / Voucher Gift

Description

Discover what it takes to fire up a real-life portable engine with the Half Day Steam Traction Engine Experience for Two at Hollycombe. Guided by an experienced operator, this hands-on session puts the two of you at the heart of the action: from laying the fire and prepping the boiler, to feeding fuel and building the pressure. You’ll both learn all the secrets and challenges of keeping a steam engine running, then enjoy the sight, sound, and unmistakable feel of steam in full flow. You can expect a little elbow grease, a lot of practical learning, and more than one cuppa along the way. Then you’ll finish your session by firing off the famous steam whistle, knowing you’ve mastered a little piece of engineering history.
