Welcome aboard on a scenic steam train trip with Santa!

Santa is back on-board his favourite steam train, jolly and present-giving as ever! Join us in welcoming him back with a scenic steam train trip – headed for the fun of Christmas.

Join us and take a ride through the beautiful South Wales countryside on seats on-board 1950s carriages. Our steam train departs from and returns to new Abergwili Junction station (SA31 2DG) in Carmarthen.

The best part? All children aged under 12 receive a present from Santa, and all groups meet this magical man for photographs and special memories!

Trains depart on November 30th, every Saturday and Sunday in December and on Monday 23rd at times between 10:00 and 18:00. Selecting your preferred date when booking then shows specific times.

What to Expect:

  • A warm welcome from our small, dedicated team at our station – full of magic!
  • Steam train ride through beautiful South Wales countryside
  • Meeting Santa! and a present for children aged under 12 (a lovely teddy bear with new railway-theme Christmas jumper!)
  • A Christmas storybook with a traditional tale for each child.
  • Complimentary mince pie for all adults, and drink and snack for children.
  • An activity booklet to keep the kids entertained in quiet moments.

There are two types of seating – exclusive compartments (available on all dates) and open seating (from Saturday 14th December).
