Well worth a visit.

  I arrived by bus to North Thoresby as it seemed closer to the bus stop and there was a pub opposite the station for a quick pint.

The... read more track is dead straight so you can see the train leaving Ludborough. It was a rare Saturday steaming so I took the opportunity to tick this one off as it can be difficult to get here on Sundays by public transport.

To be honest there’s not a lot to see but staff and stations were tidy enough and visitors seemed to be have a good time.

  I visited the Teddy Bear train ride with my 8 year old daughter, my mum and her partner and we loved it. Marc the Fox was amazing, he got us... read more all singing and dancing in our seats as the steam train made its short journey. We all jumped off for a sing and a dance and hopped back on again. Great experience, lovely café, little gift shop with plenty of bargains to look through. Great team, clean carriages and fabulous entertainment. Your tickets also allow you to ride the train as many times as you like. Highly recommend.

The outbound journey to the North Pole was good and the kids and adults all seemed to be enjoying themselves. Santa came through the carriages giving gifts to the children and the adults each got a pen, which was an unexpected touch. On the return journey the elves got everyone involved in a sing and dance, which was great cheesy fun. Once back at the station, there was a photo with Santa and then we had a look at the engine and our youngest was very happy to have his photo with the driver on the loco footplate. All round good fun and for a great volunteer workforce, I salute them.

Not sure what experiences others had, but we for sure had a great time and highly recommend. I guess it's all about expectations and attitude. Keep up the good work.
