Step back in time aboard our beautifully restored 1950s/60s heritage carriages and embark on an unforgettable 20-mile round trip through the stunning Nottinghamshire countryside.

Experience the golden age of steam travel as our magnificent locomotive powers you along the historic Great Central Railway route towards Loughborough. Feel the rhythm of the rails, hear the whistle echo across the fields, and breathe in that distinctive aroma of coal and steam.

What awaits you:

  • Breathtaking countryside views through picture-perfect carriage windows
  • The authentic sights, sounds and smells of vintage steam travel
  • A journey steeped in railway heritage and nostalgia
  • Rolling landscapes, charming villages, and scenic vistas
  • The perfect escape from the modern world

Whether you're a railway enthusiast, history buff, or simply seeking a unique day out, this is more than just a train ride—it's a journey through living history.

Sit back, relax, and let the rhythmic chug of the steam engine transport you to a bygone era of elegance and adventure.
