Yes, we know it’s only October, but if you’d like a seat on board the GCRN Santa Special, it’s time to book now! The seasonal services are growing in popularity every year, making early booking essential to avoid disappointment. This year’s Santa Specials will run every Saturday and Sunday from 26 November, right up to the final festive departure at 12:30pm on Christmas Eve.
All Santa Specials will be hauled by heritage steam trains, with Santa Claus himself coming aboard to give out gifts to all the children. There’ll be seasonal refreshments for everyone to enjoy, and the GCRN shop, cafeteria and miniature and model railways will also be open to visit before or after your trip.
You can download the Santa Specials leaflet and booking form at www.gcrn.co.uk or call into the GCRN office to pick one up in person.
