Get ready for an enchanting adventure as we transport you to the North Pole and back. Our beautifully restored steam train, adorned with festive decorations, sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. As you settle into your comfortable seat, the train whistles, and the journey begins, winding through the picturesque landscapes of the Cotswolds. When you get to 'The North Pole' you are invited to see Santa, the children receive a present from Santa and his elves - there are refreshments included in the price.

We run our Santa Express trains, on 23rd, 24th, 30th November and 1st, 7th, 8th, 14th, 15th, 20th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd December 2024.

The steam train journey to the North Pole takes about half an hour, the train stays there about 1 hour 20 mins and then the trip back takes another 30 mins. The whole experience normally lasts just under 2½hours.
