We will be open to the public on Saturday 6th June at 12.30pm, rides begin at 1pm.
To keep you all safe we would need to tell you about our safety guidelines:
Please keep children and pets supervised at all times.
Only cross the track at designated crossings.
While travelling on the miniature trains please do not lean from side to side, stand up, or wave your arms about and keep your feet on the running boards at all times.
Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear as the ground is uneven in places and there may be smuts from the steam engines.
We are a working site and there will be some areas you are unable to go for safety reasons.
Please stay safe and enjoy your visit!
