The Jumbo Express

Take a ride on one of our two impressive steam engines, Excelsior and Superior, as they weave their way through the territories of some of the world's most inspiring animals.

Elephants, rhinos, camels and zebras are just a few of the mammals you can expect to meet on your Jumbo Express journey. With our exciting new commentary, we will take you on a safari adventure you will never forget.

Asked why people love the trains so much, driver and engineer Kevin Edwins said: “It’s the sheer magic of a steam-hauled railway, people love to hear the whistle and see the smoke - very few zoos have them.”
