Railway Trivia Cards: Printable Train Quiz Game

A printable train quiz with 32 multiple-choice cards about the Isle of Man’s heritage railways and three of Britain’s most famous steam engines. Each card has a question, three answers to choose from, and the right answer printed upside down at the bottom for the reader.

The four categories, 8 cards each:

- Steam Railway: the Isle of Man Steam Railway, Douglas to Port Erin

- Electric Railway: the Manx Electric Railway, Douglas to Ramsey

- Mountain & Glen: the Snaefell Mountain Railway and the Groudle Glen Railway

- Famous Engines: Rocket, Mallard and Flying Scotsman

Three ways to play:

- Quiz Race (2 to 6 players or teams): answer right and keep the card

- Steam to Port Erin: a printable board game where each right answer moves your train one stop

- Category Challenge: answer all 8 cards in a category and try to beat your score

Also included: card backs, an answer list and a score sheet.

Suggested ages 8 to adult. Good for a family quiz night, a railway club, a classroom or a long journey.

Files: one zip with the A4 PDF (10 pages), the US Letter PDF and a read-me.

Printing: print at 100% / actual size. Colour looks best, but everything works in black and white. Thin card works better than paper.

Where the answers come from: every answer was checked on 3 November 2026 against the pages of Isle of Man Transport (iombusandrail.im), the Groudle Glen Railway, the National Railway Museum and the Science Museum Group Collection. Journey times and line lengths are the operators’ figures. Not endorsed by any of them.

The games, card wording, board, drawings and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work.

Licence: print as many copies as you need for your own family or your own class or group. Please don’t resell, re-upload or share it publicly.
