Step back in time and immerse yourself in the magic of the past whilst we celebrate railways in the dark, with a unique combination of nostalgia, live entertainment, and authentic railway experiences. Here’s what you can expect:
– A Wide Selection of Ales and Beers: Enjoy a diverse range of local ales and craft beers to accompany your evening.
– Live Music: Listen to live performances that perfectly complement the ambiance, enhancing your railway adventure.
– Nostalgic Railway at Night: Witness the charm of a vintage railway coming to life in the dark. Bardic and paraffin lamps cast a warm glow, while signal boxes, crossings, and stations are lit up to recreate the 1960s atmosphere.
– Freight Runs in the Dark: Experience the thrill of seeing freight trains running under the night sky.
– Brake Van Rides with Lit Stoves: Take a ride in a traditional brake van, complete with a glowing stove, and get a sense of what it was like to be a guard on a steam hauled freight train in the 1960s. (Supplement payable)
– Steam Locomotives Come Alive: Watch as steam locomotives bring the sounds and sights of a bygone era to life under the Derbyshire night sky.
