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).

Great gift idea
The pack comes with a map and clear instructions, which we were able to follow (quite an achievement as most of our group can get lost anywhere!)
There are notes about the various points of interest along the way, and ideas for site-seeing and eating. We were also very lucky with the weather, which is always a bonus.
Fun Family Experience Days Out

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.
