Cream Teas, 2013
We currently do not have a steam locomotive.
The services will be running at the advertised times using our diesel locomotives.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
The C&PRR offers patrons the opportunity to partake of an excellent cream tea during the leisurely journey to Thame Junction and back.
Cream teas are available on some standard
Sunday services, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Senior
Citizen Days.
These are indicated on the calendar by white circles.
We are also offering a Sunday Ploughman's Lunch on certain trains. Click for details.
To book for Cream Teas ring 07979 055366
It is strongly recommended that Cream Teas are booked before arrival as they are very popular and space is limited.
