Train Journey Experience Days

Enjoy a Scenic Excursion on Board Britain's Brilliant Locomotives

The train is surely the most romantic form of transport. Forget stuffy carriages overcrowded with commuters, and instead picture the golden era of rail travel – when it was an altogether more civilised affair. Journeys were scenic, service was five-star, and the engine’s constant chugging supplied a cheerful soundtrack. In this section, you’ll find a number of locomotive experiences, which transport passengers back to this luxurious age. If you’re looking for the right gift to mark a very special occasion, you’re in the right place! Browse Experience Days’ great range of vouchers, and treat a nostalgic loved one to a train journey they’ll never forget!

For April, the latest Experience Days for Train Journey Experiences include, Edinburgh And Highlands Steam Train Tour, London Underground Private Guided Tube Tour, and Horse And Carriage Ride With Picnic Hamper in Selby for 5.

    Train Journeys

    Sometimes it’s not the destination that counts, but the journey – and rail travel exemplifies this more than any other. Notwithstanding modern delays and overcrowding, there’s still something magic about trains – an excitement on the platform, as the great locomotive pulls into the station. On board, we watch the British countryside pass by, and thoughts wander to past times – when life moved at a gentler pace.

    At Experience Days, we’re delighted to offer a range of unforgettable journeys, which capture the unique spirit of train travel. In this section, you’ll find vouchers to transport your loved one to a bygone era of luxury and adventure. Among them, we have excellent dining packages, historic excursions, festive treats, an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery, and even a chance to ride on the footplate!

    Trains include the Belmond Northern Belle and the Bluebell Railway steam engine, with prices starting at £59 for a day trip for two. You’ll also find several deluxe experiences – perfect if you’re shopping for an extra special birthday, anniversary or wedding gift.

    So, if you know someone who appreciates the romance of a good train journey, surprise them with an Experience Days voucher, and treat them to the very very best!

    A great days experience. In the morning under the capable instructions of Brian l was shown how to drive a DMU in sections between Wirksworth and Duffield, not easy but very interesting. After lunch a tour of the workshop s was conducted by Sean, followed by an afternoon of driving the Class 47 along the line under the instruction of Alan. All in all a great day organised by Leigh and his team at the EVR.
