Train rides at dusk & in the dark, Sat 20 April 2024

Saturday 20 April 2024
On Saturday 20th April the CMR is hosting train rides at dusk and in the dark. Rides begin at 5pm 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. Children shorter than our measuring sticks (about 1.4 m) must ride with an adult. 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. ENCLOSED FOOTWEAR IS REQUIRED. Please note that the booking fee of 88c per ticket goes to Trybooking.com for the use of this website.
