If you fancy dressing up for the event, feel free to dress up in the period attire, whether that’s a showman’s outfit or steam train drivers ‘Bib and Brace’ and soak up the atmosphere of the weekend.
Enjoy an ice cream or hog roast in the field, or visit the beer tent to sample some popular ales and ciders.
Steam-hauled passenger trains will be operating throughout the weekend. In addition an evening heritage diesel service will operate on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings.

ACCESSABILITY

SITE DESCRIPTION
ROADS TO RAIL is an outdoor event situated in a farmers field. The majority of the ground is flat, however mobility problems are posed on grass areas, particularly in bad weather conditions. If it rains, it may get muddy and access around the site may be very difficult.

Please bear this in mind when attending the event and come prepared for all weather conditions.

Please note, we do not offer any internal transport due to the limitations of moving around the site.

STROBE LIGHTING
We would like to advise all customers that flicker, laser, strobe and other lighting effects may be in use at the show ground site.
