Spring has well and truly sprung here in the Western Lakes, and we're having a fantastic Easter season. From family adventures and egg hunts to scenic journeys through Eskdale, it's been wonderful to see so many of you enjoying the railway. Our ticket offices are a little busier than usual while we roll out a brand new ticketing system, so we’d love it if you could book your tickets online if possible. Thanks for bearing with us – we’re steaming ahead as fast as we can! | Join us for an egg-citing Easter celebration from 5th - 21st April. Young adventurers can participate in our 'High Speed Easter Egg Hunt' during the train journey and enjoy activities at the Ravenglass Railway Museum. Our cafés will be dressed in their Easter best, offering an array of egg-tastic treats. |
More Trains, More Adventures |
We're running extra services at the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway this weekend – Saturday 12th, Sunday 13th and Monday 14th April. Don’t miss your chance to hop aboard and explore Eskdale! Please note that Saturday's extra trains will be diesel-hauled. (Tickets for these extra trains can be purchased on the day in person only, subject to availability.) | For those looking to stretch their legs, why not take the train to Dalegarth and walk back? The Eskdale TRail offers a delightful 8.5 mile (approximately 14 kilometres) walk through stunning Eskdale. Look out for red squirrels, roe deer and buzzards along the way. |
