About the event
*The event is for children up to the age of 12. We also welcome children over the above stated age, however unfortunately the gift might not be appropriate.*
Make this Christmas a real cracker with a trip on board our famous Elf Express! Meet our Chief Elf as well as Santa Claus himself and enjoy an interactive Christmas performance before jumping on board a heritage locomotive! There’ll be live entertainment, Christmas music, lots of photo opportunities, refreshments and a special present from Santa for every child.
Merry compartments are quiet compartments where the elves will not interact during the journey. When the train stops part way through the journey, Santa and the elves will visit the carriage.
There are some outdoor elements to the event so please make sure you are wrapped up for the weather. Be sure to wear a warm coat, outdoor shoes/boots and bring your hats, gloves…
