Product ID: 18109

Celebrate Christmas with a nostalgic vintage bus and steam train experience at Ecclesbourne Valley Railway in Derbyshire! Taking place on Friday 4th December 2026 for one day only, this festive excursion is the perfect seasonal day out. Your journey begins aboard a charming vintage bus, with pick-up points across North Nottinghamshire, including Sutton, Annesley and Kirkby. Coaches ‘Walter’, ‘Ernie’ and ‘Ethel’ will take you on a scenic journey to the picturesque market town of Wirksworth. Here, you will board a traditional steam train and travel along the historic Ecclesbourne Valley Railway to Duffield, passing through Shottle and Idridgehay stations. Settle into your vintage carriage and enjoy the festive atmosphere, complete with warm mince pies and mulled wine served by the onboard stewards. After the locomotive’s run-around at Duffield, sit back and enjoy the return steam journey to Wirksworth, where your vintage bus will be waiting to take you back to your original pick-up point. Combining vintage transport, steam railway nostalgia and seasonal treats, this special Christmas excursion is a wonderful way to get into the festive spirit. Available on Friday 4th December 2026 only, so book your vouchers today to secure your place!
