A very last minute update to tell you all about tomorrow's operations.

Tomorrow is our Teddy Bear's Picnic event where children up to the age of 14 who bring their Teddy Bears with them will travel FREE OF CHARGE on the trains. There will aslo be free arts and craft activities on the train plus Punch & Judy and Magic Shows, as well as balloon modelling at intervals throughout the day.

To make it even better tomorrow sees two trains are running which not only allows you to enjoy travelling behind steam but also in our DMU. It really is 2 for the price of 1! The steam service will operate to the usual timetable, with the DMU working a service around it.

And for the enthusiasts... instead of our usual locomotives, Hunslet 0-6-0ST 'Jessie' will be hauling the steam service all day. 'Jessie' is staying with us for a short period while work is carried out on the Polish engine No. 4015.

If you require more information please give the office a call tomorrow on 0117 932 5538.
