Royal Forester Evening Dining Train

A Delicious Meal Served on a Wonderful Evening Train Ride!

Enjoy a nostalgic evening tour behind one of our vintage steam locomotives (or our visiting diesel locomotive on Saturday 14th September) whilst tucking into a delicious pie, supplied freshly cooked by the Ugly Duckling restaurant in Lydney, with either mashed or new potatoes followed by a choice of desserts. A full onboard bar will be available.

With our silver service option, you will also be entitled to a digestif and coffee or tea with mints onboard our First Class Inspection Saloon after your meal (if booking the 18:00 departure), or a welcome drink served onboard the Saloon (if booking the 18:40 departure).
