Santa Specials: 12 – 22nd December
Celebrate the festive season with a magical journey through beautiful Mid-Wales to meet the family’s favourite Christmas cheer bringer, Father Christmas!
Arrive at our vintage station, Llanfair Caereinion, board our heated carriages hauled by a historic steam engine to be transported through a wintery landscape to our middle station at Castle Caereinion and back.
Your journey last approximately 70 minutes, during which time you will meet Father Christmas and his elves on the train. Every family then receives a specially made Christmas decoration, and, very importantly, an entry ticket to Santa’s Workshop. Upon your return to Llanfair Caereinion, see Mrs Claus and her Maker Elf in the Workshop to select your Christmas gift.
Adult passengers receive a mince pie and non-alcoholic hot seasonal drink to enjoy during your journey. Children receive a festive biscuit and juice carton.
All trains depart from Llanfair Caereinion, postcode SY21 0SF, where you should arrive 20 minutes before your booked time. The experience lasts for approximately 90 minutes.
Accessibility – Our trains have a limited number of spaces for wheelchair-users which must be pre-booked. If your party has additional access needs please contact us on 01938 810441 before purchasing tickets.
SEND specials operate on Wednesday 16th December. Trains on this day have an adapted experience suitable for those with special educational needs, with a reduced number of tickets and discounts for carers.
Wrap up warm – Our vintage carriages are steam heated, however our stations and many activities are outdoors, therefore we advise our passengers to wrap up warm during the winter months.
Members concessionary travel is not available during this special event.
