Prices include fees

On Saturday 4th April, Saturday 13th June, Saturday 5th September and Sunday 18th October, experience the sights and sounds of a tanker train working alongside our passenger train!

This year all of our tanker trains are planned to be rideable, however there are very limited spaces to travel on board our brake van, so we recommend snapping up your space beforehand. Please note that this experience is only available for ages 12 and above, and dogs are not able to travel on these trains.

Important information: departures will all be from Lydney Junction Station, but if you are looking to join us at Norchard Station you can travel up to, and back from, Lydney for the first and second departures on board the steam train at no additional cost. Please note that the third trip will not have a return steam train from Lydney Junction to Norchard available.

Join us in reliving a piece of railway history with our unique tanker train running alongside our steam hauled passenger services. These trains are free to view and photograph, and are run in association with the National Wagon Preservation Group. The locomotive which will be used on each day will be confirmed nearer the day: please see our locomotive roster for these details.
