Train rides at dusk & in the dark, Sat 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.
