  Really enjoyed the entertainment put on by Mark and his colleagues today. The staff where friendly and knowl

  What a shame this has lost the personal touch that it had when we took our eldest 2 grandchildren a few years back! We were met by... read more Santa on the platform and they were given their lovely gifts after the train journey and had photos taken with him, which was money well spent. Not like this year which was so disappointing, no organisation, no one seemed to know where to go and no personal touch at all. The gift was tacky. This was supposed to be a Santa Special, the train didn’t even have the Santa Special sign on as it did previously! Very disappointing and a complete waste of money, definitely would not recommend this to anyone!

  What a fantastic steam railway this is. I have two small boys who are train obsessed and they loved it. I would also like to mention how lovely the people... read more who work here are. Everyone we met was polite and helpful, even helping us on and off with our pram. Thank you so much for a brilliant day, we will be coming back soon.

  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.

  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.

  As a family we have visited the railway on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. We visited over the bank holiday weekend, which was a Super Hero's event.... read more There were lots of families enjoying the day with many children and adults dressed as Batman, Super girl etc. One volunteer guard dressed as Superman, did a superb job of entertaining the children as the train travelled from Ludborough to North Thoresby and back. On the platform at North Thoresby, Superman and another guard led dances on the platform and many of the children and adults joined in. Parking is free and there are good toilet facilities on the station and while the cafe on the stationery buffet car was currently out of action, there was a kiosk selling hot and cold drinks, crisps and biscuits. Food could be eaten in the buffet car. It is very much small scale but never the less, the volunteers make it a great experience and it is well worth a visit.
