Santa's Enchanted Journey at Ecclesbourne Valley Railway

We’re so excited for Christmas at the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway, what’s even more exciting is we’ve just found a letter from Santa – and we’ve stuck it below:

To my dearest friends,

Christmas is approaching very, very quickly – and I want to make sure you all have the most magical Christmas possible.

I’ve enlisted the help of my friends at the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway to spread some Christmas cheer, but I need your help in completing a little to-do list Mrs Claus has left me! I’ve been so busy getting all of your wonderful gifts made that I’ve forgotten to complete all of the tasks she’s asked me to do to ensure Christmas is ready. If you can help me, that would be most magical.

I’ve arranged for some of my top, top, TOP Elves to be at the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway across the festive period to help you, but also to make sure that each and every one of you are ready for Christmas.

Don’t worry though, I’ll make sure I come to see each and every one of you on your enchanted journey!

So don’t delay in joining me and my elves on a beautiful steam train for a journey filled with festive cheer, magic, hot chocolate, and warmth.

Love,

Santa Claus x
