Santa arrives this weekend at the Honeybourne Line and the railway starts its 'Stanta Speicals' so Mums, Dads, Grandparents, Aunties, Uncles - and of course youngsters - can pay him a visit.

For kids, this might be just the perfect opportunity to ask him what to send them on Christmas night - and he will give them an early Christmas present as a 'thank-you' for paying him a visit.

This weekend, trains depart Toddington station (AA sign posted) at 10.15, 11.45, 13.30 and 15.00.  When you get to Winchcombe you'll be able to visit Santa in his specially-prepared railway coach grotto and enjoy a drink and one of the railway's famous specially-made mince pies.

Tickets are still available (although many trains are now fully booked later in the month).  Phone first to reserve your tickets and collect them on the day.  If you decide to come at the last minute, also phone to check availability of tickets. The number to call is 01242 621 405.
