On a warm Spring day, you just gotta go for the little train, and Leighton Buzzard narrow gauge railway

Christmas and steam trains are made for each other. At the Leighton Buzzard Railway in Bedfordshire UK you and the family can enjoy an absolute dream. You can take a 25-minute festive ride througout the holiday period along a narrow-gauge railway with a history dating back to the First World War, then take a walk through a magic tunnel and meet Santa in his grotto where children up to the age of 12, will recieve a present and for the grown-ups, hot mince pies and hot punch await them in the Dobbers buffet! www.buzzrail.co.uk

The Leighton Buzzard Railway… It was a great ‘day out’ when the family visited the Leighton Buzzard narrow-gauge railway in Bedfordshire UK recently. Built back in 1919, from materials surplus from the First World War battlefields railways, to carry sand from the quarries around Leighton Buzzard. It’s now a popular tourist attraction, and one of England’s top narrow-gauge working museums, with historic locomotives from all over the world. Top picture: The Callaghan family inspect the engine.
