The weather is slowly starting to warm up as we emerge from winter and families are always looking for fun days out to spend time together.
Often described as a "hidden gem", including by the website Visit Nottinghamshire, a Nottingham railway attraction could just be the ticket for many looking to enjoy time out.
Formerly known as GCRN - The Great Central Railway - Nottingham, Nottingham Heritage Railway on Mere Way in Ruddington now offers almost six miles of heritage railway running through the beautiful scenery of South Nottinghamshire and North-West Leicestershire.
Heritage Steam & Diesel services re-create the experience of train travel from when it was more than just a way to travel from one place to another.
Entirely staffed by volunteers, all income is used to preserve railway & transport heritage for future generations. The NHR is a great experience for all the family.
