Hire your own train!
If you wish to hire a train for a party, we have three main areas in which we can help:
| Requirement | Capacity | Approximate 2006 cost |
| Whole of train on days when we are not otherwise running, capacity 100 | 100 | >£600 |
| Full coach (capacity 50) for all day on a day when we are running | 50 | From £250 |
| Part of coach for half day on day we are running | 6 Adults / 12 Children | From £75 |
In the first two examples the reserved accommodation would be yours all day for your guests. For Birthday parties part of coach is yours for an agreed number of return trips, usually 3. In all cases you are welcome to bring your own catering or caterer onto train. We are not currently offering inhouse catering other than provision of hot/cold drinks and light refreshments from Buffet in main building (which may be taken onto train).
Alcoholic beverages are not at this time available on site. If you wish to bring your own (eg for 50th) then there is a small surcharge. As an operating railway we do not have on train licensing to consider. We will not have license for off train.
Each party booking is bespoked to individual requirements and there are innumerable permutations. If you require further information, please use the contact link to send a request in, and we'll be right in touch.
