**FOR ONE WEEKEND ONLY**

On 28 & 29 September 2024 Pioneer Diesels Limited’s class 45 105 will be hauling passenger trains on the Springwell Branch at the Roundhouse. This is a hugely significant event as the loco has not hauled a train since the mid 1980s.

On Saturday 28 September the loco will be a headline act at our Garden Railway Show. Special event entry prices will apply:

- Adult ticket £14
- Child ticket (3-15 yrs) £7

However, to give as many people as possible a chance to ride behind the loco, it will also haul trains on Sunday 29 September. Prices, including entry to the Rou:ndhouse

- Adult ticket £11
- Child ticket (3-15 yrs) £7

Travel behind 45 105 for the first time in 40 years, only at Barrow Hill Roundhouse.

*Subject to loco availability on the day.
