Diesel Day Train Charter Event

Experience a change of pace on the Bure Valley Railway as we dedicate a full day to our hardworking diesel locomotives.

Join us for a diesel-filled day featuring No. 3 "2nd Air Division USAAF" and No. 4 Rusty, our "Hudson Hunslet 0-4-0 Diesel Shunter", as they take centre stage on a special charter-style service. After nearly 40 years of service, No. 3 2nd Air Division USAAF is in need of some well-earned tender loving care, and all funds raised from ticket sales will go directly towards her overhaul.

Spaces are limited, and while we will try our utmost to provide a full service, services are subject to last-minute change without warning due to the nature of the event.

A must for diesel fans and railway enthusiasts alike - Book Now to avoid disappointment.
