View Dates & BookAll aboard for a delicious journey through the Leicestershire countryside!
Step back in time with a nostalgic 16-mile return trip aboard a beautifully restored 1950s/60s heritage steam train on the Great Central Railway. As the steam locomotive winds its way through the picturesque Leicestershire countryside, relax in vintage carriages and enjoy the sights, sounds and atmosphere of a bygone era before enjoying a freshly prepared portion of traditional fish & chips (or a tasty alternative), collected en route and served on your return journey. Combining vintage railway charm with classic British comfort food, this unique experience is the perfect recipe for a memorable day out.
