Enjoy the magic of an evening steam train trip from Wirksworth station near Matlock (Postcode DE4 4FB) on the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway with lovely scenery to admire as the sun sets and a tasty curry accompaniment served to you as we roll along.
Your seats in a heritage carriage from the 1950s or early 1960s, hauled by a historic steam locomotive, are the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion such as a birthday, anniversary or other event. The trip departs at 18:30 and takes approximately one hour and 45 minutes. The evening is concluded at the starting station by 9pm.
All groups are allocated private tables, but upgrades to a private compartment are also available.
Three food options are offered. These are Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Railway Gohst or Chickpea Chana (vegetarian). An onion bhaji starter and Pistachio ice cream pudding are also served.
We have some great reviews from several years of operating vintage journeys including:
"It was a pleasant change to the normal hustle-bustle of current times"
"Wonderful trip through the Derbyshire countryside"
"Very well organised and would definitely recommend Fox & Edwards"
"Thank you to all who helped make our day feel really special. We all felt like VIP's. Well done!"
Dogs cannot be accommodated on this trip though they can on some of our other journeys.
