Described as a 'magical Christmas experience' the historical attraction is promising a memorable day out, which could be welcome news for families many of whom have been left disappointed with the cancellation of some Kent pantomimes.

Spa Valley steam engines will take passengers on a picturesque journey through the Kent and Sussex countryside with the opportunity to see Santa Claus himself from the comfort of your seat whilst on board the train.

The experience will last around 2 hours and trains will start at Eridge and journey to Tunbridge Wells West where everyone can get off and visit the Victorian engine shed for a photo opportunity with Santa and his sleigh before returning to Eridge. Presents will also be given out on board the train alongside pre-boxed mince pies for every adult and child.
