Much loved favourites will be returning to the railway including the popular Peppa Pig and Friends Fun Day and a themed mystery that is fun for both younger and older sleuths, families can also dive into the brand new mythical madness of Dragon Quest.
Brand new to East Lancashire Railway, families can embark on a magical quest to the Mythical Forest of Fantasy and become the newest members of the legendary Dragon Camp.
Part mystery, part scavenger hunt and part treasure trail, families will have to complete magical missions and solve puzzles in Bury Transport Museum to become the master of dragons while meeting some mystical characters throughout the journey including a pixie who’s grown too tall, a wise old elf who doesn’t know anything and lots of dragons.
