Picture
Step on-board a lovingly restored steam train and travel back in time on the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway in the lovely Derbyshire Dales (Postcode DE4 4FB). Enjoy the scenery rolling by, make great memories and tuck-into a tasty fish & chips accompaniment.

Take in the picturesque scenery on a 16 mile round trip from Wirksworth, just 14 miles from Derby, in a heritage carriage from the 1950s or early 1960s, hauled by a steam locomotive. The trip takes approximately 90 minutes.

Fish and chips (or sausage and chip / halloumi and chips it as alternatives, chosen when booking) are served/collected at the half-way point, to be eaten on the return journey. You will also be given a drink and scrumptious flapjack or large biscuit.

On most dates, trains depart at 13:15 and 15:25. On some dates, we also offer evening excursions - departing at 18:30 - for the romance of train journey at sunset.

​
