2. Santa Steam Specials at Severn Valley Railway
After festive fun at Kidderminster Station, travel in a private compartment or at a reserved table on a vintage steam train to Arley, for an all-new theatrical show: The Great Christmas Train Rescue.
This amazing live show features Santa himself, but his magical steam train is in trouble, and only Polly the polar bear and a pair of cheeky elves can save the day from the scheming villain, Victor Von Sneeze!
With dazzling puppetry by War Horse’s Matthew Forbes, toe-tapping tunes, and heart-warming moments, this is a festive experience like no other. Back on the train, presents will be waiting for all children, before your train steams back to Kidderminster.
Relaxed Santa Steam Specials
For those who would prefer an experience which brings down the volume, keeps lighting at a low level and offers a reduced capacity, Relaxed Santa Steam Specials can also be booked online.
