Something to look forward to ….

🎄❤️ ALL THE CHRISTMAS MAGIC. A GENTLER EXPERIENCE.

Christmas can be exciting, but for some families, the noise and bustle can feel a little overwhelming.

That's why we're offering Christmas Quiet Trains, hosted by our wonderful Autism Railway Crew. 🚂✨

These special services offer reduced noise levels and a calmer, more relaxed atmosphere, while still enjoying the magic of Christmas at the Nene Valley Railway.

🎅 Santa visits every child aboard the train
🎁 A Christmas Wish Coin to exchange for a gift at Santa's Toy Shop
❤️ A welcoming experience for visitors with additional needs or sensory sensitivities
🚂 All the festive magic, at a gentler pace

📅 JUST TWO QUIET TRAIN SERVICES:

🎄 Sunday 29th November – 10:30am
🎄 Saturday 5th December – 10:30am

Whether your family benefits from a quieter environment or simply prefers a more relaxed experience, we'd love to welcome you.
