The Rutlander Train At Rocks By Rail
Sunday, May 15th
Sunday 15th May will see steam being raised at Rocks By Rail for the return of the popular 'Rutlander' train service.
Pay once and ride all day in one of our two passenger brake vans, hauled by one of our resident Andrew Barclay saddle tank locomotives.
The trip will take you from our platform and along the former minerals branch line which once served the sidings of the ironstone quarries in the area.
Visitors can also view our fleet of historic ironstone locomotives in the recently opened Simon Layfield Exhibition Centre which now houses the greater part of the museums collection. The Woolsthorpe Workshop is also open for visitors to see progress of ongoing locomotive restorations.
Price: Adult £8, Senior Citizen £7, Child (3-14 years) £5
