1st Class Steam Train Travel with Afternoon Tea (Kent)
Event Summary
Step on-board a beautifully restored 1st class carriage pulled by a steam locomotive on the Kent and East Sussex Railway in the lovely "Garden of England". Admire the passing views, make great memories and enjoy an afternoon tea at your seat.
Take in the picturesque scenery on a round trip of 21 miles from Tenterden in a heritage carriage from the 1950s or early 1960s, hauled by a steam locomotive. The trip takes just under two hours - perfect for getting a good "fill" of nostalgia or celebrating a birthday, anniversary or other special occasion.
The carriage in use is named Diana, a 1960-built restaurant car from the age of steam and finished inside with royal blue & cream interior.
The afternoon tea is served at your seat during the journey and contains sandwiches, cakes, scones, other tasty items and hot drinks. Yummy!
