This special Father's Day treat includes a return journey on one of the Railway's stunning vintage steam trains and Dad can choose from a delicious homemade ploughmans lunch or cream tea, served to your private table and complemented with a bottle of the railway's very own beer, "Dad's Delight" (soft drink option available).

Relax on board and enjoy some quality time with Dad, as you take in the beautiful scenery of the surrounding countryside, interrupted only by the gentle chug of the steam engine.
