Step on-board a lovingly restored steam train and travel back in time on the Great Central Railway departing from Loughborough station, LE11 1RW.
Take in the experience of riding in heritage carriages from the 1950s or early 1960s on a 16 mile round trip from Loughborough's beautifully restored station - in easy reach of Birmingham and the wider Midlands.
As we chuff along, you'll see two superbly managed stations (Quorn and Woodhouse set in the 1940s and Rothley from the early 1900s). As this is Britain's only steam railway with double track, look out for other heritage trains whizzing past too!
Fish and chips are served/collected at the half-way point, to be eaten on the return journey. You will also be given with a drink and scrumptious flapjack or large biscuit.
Trains depart at 12:00, 14:00 and 15:45 and the journey lasts approximately 75 minutes.
We have some great reviews from our journeys around the UK including:
"It was nice to have a bit of nostalgia from childhood memories"
"Staff was pleasant and helpful polite, questions through emails was quickly answered fantastic service"
"Lovely relaxing day out"
"Thank you to all who helped make our day feel really special. We all felt like VIP's. Well done!"
Dogs are welcome on-board, but must not travel on seats.
Please note that tables are arranged in fours. Groups of two may be seated on the same table as other groups of two.
