Good(s) Friday

Start your Easter with the Good(s) Friday Event!

Kick off the bank holiday weekend with a trip back in time as we bring the golden age of freight to life. On Good Friday, our impressive fleet of goods trains will be running alongside our regular passenger services, giving you the rare chance to see these hardworking locomotives in action.

From the sight and sound of classic steam and diesel engines hauling vintage wagons, to the atmosphere of a busy railway at work, this event shines a spotlight on the railway’s commercial past and the vital role freight once played.

It’s a fantastic day out for enthusiasts, history lovers, and families alike. With an action-packed timetable and plenty of opportunities for stunning photography, the Good(s) Friday Event is the perfect way to start your Easter celebrations. Don’t miss it!
