This holiday season, choose to spend your precious Christmas moments with family and friends rather than in the kitchen. Join us on The Christmas Midlander, where we offer a delightful festive First-Class dining experience, that promises a quality time and lasting memories on a steam hauled train.
Feast on a delicious three-course lunch, with Tea, Coffee, & Mince Pies. Let your on-train steward serve you and your guests, whilst you enjoy an enchanting journey through Charnwood’s glorious countryside. We’ll also treat you to a pause on the Swithland Viaduct to let you take in the magnificent views across the reservoir to Charnwood Forest and the scenic countryside beyond.
It's more than a meal, it’s an opportunity to enjoy the festive season together in First Class opulence aboard a heritage steam hauled train.
The train departs from our Loughborough Central Station at 1.00pm, returning at approximately 2.45pm. Please arrive by 12:30 PM to enjoy the festive ambiance of your reserved, beautifully decorated table.
