Over the weekend of the 28th to 30th of October the railway will be hosting WensleyAle 2022 and Haunted Rail, 2 events not to be missed.

Live music in the afternoon along with pumpkin carving, bar closes at 9pm. Sunday sees the bar open again at noon, with a family quiz in the afternoon, and raffle draw.

Entry to the festival is free for train ticket holders with beer tokens, glass and festival program available on the day. A raffle will be held with the first prize being a family trip on Polar Express !
