Train rides at dusk & in the dark, Sat 16 November 2024
Saturday 16 November 2024
On Saturday 16th November the CMR is hosting train rides at dusk and in the dark. Rides begin at 5:30pm so that the littlies can enjoy them before they're off to bed but the real fun begins at dusk and in the dark when our incredible light show comes alive! Many of our trains have light shows themselves but the greatest attractions are the animated lights around the tracks. Trains travel beside, around and even under thousands of computer-controlled lights.
BEING A SPECIAL EVENT, EVERY PERSON (UNLESS AGED 2 OR UNDER) REQUIRES A TICKET TO ENTER. THIS TICKET INCLUDES UNLIMITED RIDES.
The canteen will be open for yummy hot & cold food & drink (and proper coffee!). Buy your dinner here and enjoy it in our covered picnic area while watching the trains go around.

Halloween spooky train rides
Between Friday 1 November 2024 and Saturday 2 November 2024
Come along on Halloween night
But beware - it may give you a fright!
Spooky decorations and yummy temptations
For you if you like
When it gets dark the decorations will spark
And the spookiness just begins
There's a skeleton in the shed
It might be a man without a head
But watch out for the spider that grins
So come along all dressed up
And give yourself a fright
Remember to ride the trains if you're game
And enjoy your spooky night
Times are 5:30pm to 9:30pm on each night.
The canteen will be open for yummy hot food, cold drinks & ice creams. Buy your meal here and enjoy it in our covered picnic area.
