November 2022
13th – The Educator, Great Central Railway, Loughborough, Leicestershire
Join us on Remembrance Sunday as we both remember those who have served our country as well as raising funds in support of our work especially our Rangers Riding Ranch project.
The day will begin with a special breakfast train which will be hauled by a steam engine from Loughborough Central to Quorn and Woodhouse then by a heritage diesel on the return to Loughborough Central. Tea/Coffee and Danish Pastries will be served on board. This will be a very special trip as we are hoping the train will run side by side with another steam hauled train a rare site in the UK.
There will then be an opportunity to join with the Great Central Railway for their Service of Remembrance held on the platform including the two minutes silence at 11am. Following this there will be an opportunity to get refreshments and explore Loughborough Central Station.
At 12.30 passengers will board “The Educator” where a three-course lunch will be served while you travel through the Leicestershire countryside behind a restored steam locomotive and a heritage diesel locomotive.
The menu for the lunch will be
