Last Stop Thame - new exhibition opens at the museum

Did you know that Thame once had its very own railway station?  It was on a branch line that ran from Princes Risborough to Oxford, calling on a number of villages on the way.  All that remains of it now is the Phoenix Trail from Thame to Princes Risborough. Discover this fascinating part of Thame’s social history.  

This brand new free exhibition, Last Stop Thame, runs from 1 July - 30 September and looks back at the days when the railway and the station played an essential part in the life and development of the town over a period of 100 years. The museum is open on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10.00am - 4.00pm and on Sundays from 1.00pm - 4.00pm.

If you have any memories of Thame railway that you would like to share, please get in touch [email protected], or call 08144 212801.

We’re aiming to normalise the topic of death, raise acceptance, and help people make the most of their lives by breaking the taboo around mortality. It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space. Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make…
