Hop on the ‘Spooky Special’ train for a journey like no other at GWSR’s Halloween Steam and Scream events, taking place on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 October 2019.

Pulling into stations at Broadway, Toddington, and Cheltenham Racecourse, the train will pick up passengers for a spooky ride towards Winchcombe station.

On board, take part in a Halloween-themed quiz and don’t forget to watch out for ghostly goings-on as the train travels through the haunted Greet Tunnel.

Upon arrival at the station, passengers should watch out for the ‘Wicked Witch of Winchcombe’ who’ll be prowling the platform, and the ghostly phantom train which will be whooshing through the station.

Be prepared for terrifying tales, scary snacks and creepy crafts at this fun-filled family event.

With a prize up for grabs for the best costume, come dressed in the scariest costume to be in with a chance of winning.

All Halloween attractions are free, but please note that normal fares for the train still apply.
