East Somerset Railway Steam Train Trip with Sparkling Afternoon Tea for Two

Awesome Tea and Train Experience

What a great day! Bought as a birthday present for me, my wife and I went down to the railway. We spent time looking around the Railway - some really awesome nostalgia (weirdly loved the telephone box) and of course the locomotives. Amazing. The tea and journey on the train was top notch! A great end to a great day. Thoroughly recommend as a day out. (Plant based option was available without cream).

Amazing experience

The experience was amazing. We were warmly welcomed by the staff and instructor, Pete, who was friendly and knowledgable throughout showing my husband what to do to operate the train. The experience was the highlight of our trip to Nottinghamshire and can't recommend it enough.

Fantastic day out

Would highly recommend a visit to the East Somerset Railway. More than just a great trip on a real steam train, it's a terrific little museum preserving history. And a fab cafe and shop!

Very enjoyable day

We met as part of a group of seven and, after coffee, we were given a tour of the locomotive shed, the carriage works and a signal box. After a provided lunch in the restaurant we had a return ride of the full length on the line, followed by a tour of the museum. Our guide was very knowledgeable without being overpowering and the whole day moved along very smoothly.
