What better way to relax after Christmas than to enjoy a complimentary mince pie aboard one of our steam trains. Lucky passengers can also pick up an extra present in a festive charity giveaway...
Ten mince pies will have special tokens placed in the wrapping. The lucky passengers who find them will win a pair of first class dining train tickets for a four course meal on board the Great Central Saturday lunch service. And that's not all - because the railway will then give £50 to the winners chosen charity, be that local or national.
