Half Term Trains 18th February
Why not take the children on a family outing on our heritage trains through Nottinghamshire this half-term? We'll be running a classic Class 107 DMU, with great views of the countryside from Ruddington to Rushcliffe Halt.
Our full size railway is operating on selected days throughout the 2026 season - and there's no better way to see Nottinghamshire than from a heritage train. Check individual event pages for details.
You don't have to be a railway professional to be part of it. Our team is made up of all sorts of people, each with a pair of boots and the enthusiasm to build something remarkable.
Our depot at Ruddington Fields is home to numerous heritage vehicles, some ready for action, some ready for restoration.
We are a volunteer-run company, responsible for the preserved Great Central Main Line north of Loughborough, including Rushcliffe Halt and the branch to Ruddington Fields, our base.
Once part of the Great Central Main Line from Sheffield to London, our route runs from Ruddington (just south of Nottingham) to the northern edge of Loughborough.
