We know many visitors have fond memories of  our previous Steam & Jazz excursions on the mainline and while we hope to bring those events back in the future, they are not part of this event.

🌧️Wet weather plan: If the weather doesn't cooperate, don't worry! The live music will move indoors to our historic carriage shed, so the event will go ahead whatever the weather.
