If you have a special event or outing to organise, make it memorable with a party booking on the Leighton Buzzard Railway.
Any group of 10 or more fare-paying passengers, booking in advance and travelling together on a scheduled train, gets a 20% discount off all fares, plus reserved seats. Coach drivers receive free travel on the train, and a refreshment voucher.
We can tailor our service to your requirements. For your copy of our Group Travel leaflets, with booking form, email us your name and postal address. Where possible, please include details of the kind of event you are organising, and your preferred dates.
Here are some of our most popular party deals:
Birthday Breaks
For a really memorable treat, come and have a birthday party on the move at the Leighton Buzzard Railway!
The birthday boy or girl travels free, and gets a Leighton Buzzard Railway birthday card, as well as a personalised headboard on the front of the locomotive, and a visit to the Driver in the cab.
All children receive a goody bag of presents, and the station buffet can be booked to provide your party refreshments. Please note different Child fares apply to Birthday Breaks--ask for our special leaflet.
Schools Specials
Enjoy an educational outing, which can be used to support work towards Key Stages 1 and 2, or the new requirement for 5 hours of cultural activities. Alternatively, it can just be a fun treat at the end of a hard school term!
A teacher resource pack is available in advance, including curriculum-related notes and a video. Prior familiarisation visits can be arranged for teachers, if required. A visit to the Leighton Buzzard Railway is particularly suited to playgroup, primary and special school children.
We run a special timetable on Wednesdays in June and July, to fit in with the school day and can operate specially on other days by arrangement. School parties must be booked in advance.
Sunset Specials
Something completely different for those long, hot summer evenings--a steam train operated specially for your party, taking you out into the Bedfordshire countryside, with a meal in the station buffet. Options include a lineside public house stop, photographic stops, workshop visit, or a talk about the history of the railway.
This is an ideal evening event for clubs, societies and other groups looking for a summer outing with a difference--and it’s an excellent budget corporate hospitality idea! Departure time is 7.30pm.
Sunset Specials are available in June, July and August only, and we are now taking bookings for the 2008 season.
