OPERATING DAYS AND EVENTS
BOOK ONLINE OR PAY ON THE DAY – THE SAME TICKET PRICE!
We start the year by running steam trains on the Wednesday and Saturday of February half term week.
In Mid-March we are operating Cream tea specials for Mothers Day, before our main season
opener on 23rd & 24th March where our Spring Industrial Steam gala brings all our working
locomotives out from their winter slumber.
This is followed by our Easter Egg Specials across the four days of Easter, and then we run
trains every Saturday from the beginning of April to the end of September.
Throughout the year we hold special events over Bank Holiday weekends and our vintage
Rail Bus on Wednesdays during August. In October we run our Spooky Trains for
Halloween Weekend, and we finish the year with our Santa Specials in December
Keep your eyes on our social media for more information and details of our special events.
