The Carol Trains...
Come on board the West Somerset Railway for a wonderful festive start to Christmas! Warm up those vocal chords and join us for a special journey of singing Carols at the stations along the way.
The ever popular West Somerset Railway Carol Trains are hauled by heritage steam locomotives to recreate the era of Christmas gone by.
In 2011, the trains run on Monday 12 December, Tuesday 13 December and Wednesday 14 December - one Carol Train starts from Bishops Lydeard and another Carol Train starts from Minehead. Each train makes a return trip to Williton and back.
Please arrive at 6.30pm to see the locomotive waiting in steam and the band preparing for the carols. Once all the passengers are aboard, the train will depart at 7.00pm to make the round trip to Williton.
Along the way the train will stop at the intermediate stations whilst carols are sung on the platform accompanied by the band. Please bring a torch as it will be dark.

The fare is £9.00 per Adult and £6.50 per Child (aged 5-15). Under 5s travel free but will still need a ticket.
