About the experience

Product ID: 16071

Make the most of your visit with the Great Central Railway Family Explorer tickets! The GCR Explorer Pack offers a well-organised itinerary, including suggested travel plans and an activity pack. With these tickets, you spend less time figuring out the timetable and more time enjoying the ride! Pick up your Explorer pack at your starting station, where an Explorer Host will welcome you and explain your day. After watching an introductory video, you’re all set to explore this fantastic heritage railway. This specially designed timetable allows you to visit all four station stops along the line and ride on various trains from the GCR’s vintage steam and diesel fleet. The schedule also includes time for lunch! The activity pack contains interesting facts and tips about sights, such as the parcels office hidden under the stairs at Rothley, the NAAFI tea room at Quorn and Woodhouse Station, and guidance like stopping at Leicester North to watch the locomotive ‘run around’. Remember to get your Explorer Activity Pack stamped at each station to earn your Explorer Badge and join the Explorer Club, which offers exclusive access to special running days, steam events, and themed experiences. What makes the Great Central Railway Explorer special is that they truly take care of the logistics, ensuring you ride plenty of steam and diesel trains and explore each station fully, without missing a thing!
