Wolds Railway Experience

  My husband and I had a fantastic 1940's day experience. Great fun! We only intended to check it out and stay an hour or so, but we ended up staying... read more 6 hours. It was a great turnout and we met and chatted to a great many visiting eventors and staff. They were all wonderfully attired and so friendly. We can't believe we didn't know it was here even though we have lived in Grimsby for 20 years. We shall make it a ritual visit from now on. It just proves that you don't need to spend alot to have a great time.

  What a great couple of hours spent with family at a volunteer run station and train. The station is great, a flash to a bygone era and we had a... read more look in the small museum and shop before having a hot drink and a snack in the cafe carriage, whilst we waited for our departure time. The outbound journey to the North Pole was good and the kids and adults all seemed to be enjoying themselves. Santa came through the carriages giving gifts to the children and the adults each got a pen, which was an unexpected touch. On the return journey the elves got everyone involved in a sing and dance, which was great cheesy fun. Once back at the station, there was a photo with Santa and then we had a look at the engine and our youngest was very happy to have his photo with the driver on the loco footplate. All round good fun and for a great volunteer workforce, I salute them.

Not sure what experiences others had, but we for sure had a great time and highly recommend. I guess it's all about expectations and attitude. Keep up the good work.

  I visited the Teddy Bear train ride with my 8 year old daughter, my mum and her partner and we loved it. Marc the Fox was amazing, he got us... read more all singing and dancing in our seats as the steam train made its short journey. We all jumped off for a sing and a dance and hopped back on again. Great experience, lovely café, little gift shop with plenty of bargains to look through. Great team, clean carriages and fabulous entertainment. Your tickets also allow you to ride the train as many times as you like. Highly recommend.

  I went here for the first time today (18th April) and truly enjoyed it. The little trip to North Thoresby and back was very cute and pleasant. Special mention to... read more Marc who greeted us very warmly and made sure we was ok. Although the Steam Locomotive failed (bless it and no ones fault as these things happen) the Diesel Engine trip was just as enjoyable. I will most definitely return again in the very near future especially that I get to enjoy the experience first time again with the Steam Engine instead.

  Credit to and a big shout out to the volunteers who attended the witches and wizards event; friendly and welcoming staff.

Well done to Marc, always a natural... read more entertainer; you tried your very best to entertain the audience when so many cancelled at the last minute.

Thank you so much. My children very much enjoy your plate spinning and choices of music to entertain and dance to.

We always enjoy the train rides and park.

  The train ride was really interesting through such pretty countryside.
Everyone was so welcoming and friendly and the station was really authentic with an atmosphere of past times
The... read more staff had been extremely helpful, particularly after my error with booking online, the issue was sorted out for me so my partner was able to enjoy his birthday treat! Excellent service and everyone is a volunteer. I highly recommend a trip on this lovely railway.
