Railway's Heritage Railcar Gala coming soon


Llangollen Railway's Heritage Railcar gala will take place in over the weekend of October 8 and 9.

A railway spokesperson said: "Our railcar group really have been amazing this year, working well over 100 operating days, an awesome achievement for an all-volunteer team operating trains in some cases older than 60 years. 

"They are celebrating their achievements this year with this nice event that includes a Saturday evening 'landcruise' trip to Carrog and back, complete with a hotpot supper. 

"Provided the weather is on-side, the event is a great way to see the evening autumnal splendour of the valley."

The spokesperson added: "Our Ride the Rocket firework train tickets for November 5 sold out in record time but we also have decided to cancel our Halloween train on the previous weekend to try and reduce the pressure on our small teams of volunteers who deliver special events.

"Santa special tickets also continue to sell well and the Austerity steam locomotive is also proving popular. It is due to be in steam on both September 24 and 25 and then October 1 and 2."
