Discover the Lincolnshire
Wolds Railway Experience

  We took our two small grandchildren (6 and 3) on Saturday. They each received a named gift and Santa spoke to both of them, a lovely touch. The... read more gifts were just right for our two, the 6 yr old especially loved his. An added extra was that Granny and Grandad also received a small gift.
There was entertainment by one of Santa's elves to get us all in the Christmas mood.
There was also a photo opportunity with Santa at the end of the ride.
Our two loved being on the train and found it fascinating.
Absolutely brilliant, we'll organised and thorough enjoyable. Highly recommended!

  From the second we arrived at the LWR what a truly wonderful experience from start to finish

Thank you again to everyone who played their part in making our visit so enjoyable

  The Lincolnshire Wolds Railway has ambtious plans to extend the line and can only do it with public help. It is good to know we can experience a railway adventure... read more and know at the same time that we are helping their fundraiisng and pay towards extending the line. £600 buys one length of rail. But every little helps.

Very enjoyable morning. Had breakfast first before the train ride, Volunteers very friendly and helpfuol. Very nostalgic for the older members of our party and fascinating for the younger ones. Can recommend a truly wonderful experience. I have heard of this railway before but never realized it was as good as this.

  We took Rainbows and Brownies on the Santa’s special today and it was fantastic. Would highly recommend taking your children it was enjoyed by all young and old! Would like... read more to give a big shout out to Elf Marc who was fantastic with the kids they where buzzing by the time the big man himself came xx 48 of us altogether

  The most amazing day out, my 6 year olds best day ever! We went to Ludborough station where we regularly attend because my son loves steam trains (and diesels) as... read more well as the model railway in the shop in the carpark where they regularly fulfill the requests of what the trains do. The staff (all volunteers) are all lovely, really friendly and helpful and go out of the way to make everyone's day. The amount of times we have gone and have been made to feel really special is unbelievable. Although all visits are exceptional todays just blew it out of the water. The man in the shop, where they sell a lot of model railway things, was just amazing and completely lovely, as ever but what really topped it off, over the usual visits was the amazing signal man who let my little boy open and close the gates and do the signal duties with him for the rest of the day. He had such an amazing time, it was genuinely his best day of his life and he has done a lot of things. Genuinely can't thank them all enough. Far better than any other railway we have been to as they go out their way to make things so special. We love their events too, having recently been on the Santa Express and the Halloween special which were fabulous. They are so lucky to have such dedicated staff. Thank you all so much x
