Buckinghamshire Railway Centre

Buckinghamshire Railway Centre is a railway museum operated by the Quainton Railway Society Ltd. at Quainton Road railway station, about 5 miles west of Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire.

The site is divided into two halves which are joined by two foot-bridges. Each side has a demonstration line with various workshop buildings as well as museum buildings.

The centre houses around 170 items of locomotives and rolling stock, in buildings dating from 1874 to the 1960s.

The adjacent World War II warehouses of the Ministry of Food Buffer Depot in the former downside yard are used to display many items awaiting restoration, and the Quainton Railway Society have added a members' reference library.

As one of the best-preserved period railway stations in England, Quainton Road is regularly used as a filming location, and has appeared in The Jewel in the Crown, Black Orchid, and Midsomer Murders.
