This November, December and January experience our Christmas Moorlander Lunch Service onboard our heritage carriages.

Enjoy a delicious festive meal with friends or family whilst travelling through the North York Moors National Park this winter season.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard THE POLAR EXPRESS Train Ride at Swanage Railway.

The experience consists of approximately an hour long return train journey leaving from the Swanage Railway Station, Railway Station Approach, Swanage, Dorset BH19 1HB. The train cannotbe boarded at any other station. The nearest long stay car park (Pay and Display) is in Victoria Avenue, BH19 1AP. We regret there is no parking available at the station. On board each train will be actors appearing as characters from the book and film of THE POLAR EXPRESS*™. There will be singing, dancing and interaction with our customers. All customers will receive a cup of hot chocolate and a cookie on the journey, and a special present on the return journey from the North Pole.

One of the most amazing things for children to do in the run up to Christmas is to take a traditional steam train ride and visit Santa's Grotto, and of course share with Santa all the things they would like him to bring them on Christmas Day!

All trains will begin their journey at Princes Risborough Platform 4 (SatNav HP27 9DN) with Santa's Elves welcoming everyone onboard. We will then travel on Santa's steam train to see the Great Man-in-Red in an enhanced Workshop and Grotto at his North Pole station, where we will halt-a-while for refreshments and a much anticipated visit to see Santa - chat to him and take some great photos for the album - and pick-up that important very first Christmas present! On the return journey the Elves will pass through the carriages to ensure all the young folks are pleased with their first presents. The whole experience from leaving Princes Risborough Platform 4 to arriving back again will take around one and a half hours. Santa has named our 1950s railway carriages after his favourite Reindeer and they are called 'Rudolph', 'Blitzen', 'Dasher', and 'Prancer'. Seats are booked at tables, whereby we always try to seat everyone together. The most important thing is that we’ll do our best to provide all of the traditional elements of our Santa experience: the steam train ride to visit him at the North Pole station, hot and cold beverages with accompanied mince pies or biscuits when you arrive, and the opportunity to meet Santa in an enhanced experience and for every Child 0-12 years to receive their all-important first present from Santa! Additional sandwiches, hot sausage rolls, crisps, snacks, and warmed alcoholic punch (mulled wine) may also be purchased on the day from the Station Café at the North Pole station. You may also find some last minute presents for purchase in our Station Shop. We've had to increase our prices a tad for this year, although we have an 'early season' special with £3 off per person on the first three days. Christmas comes but once a year and we want to make it a truly memorable occasion - Santa says we really want you to have a great time and enjoy that festive feeling. Our volunteers look forward to welcoming you and your family onboard!
