Wensleydale Railway’s popular afternoon tea train services return this year, with new menus and extra dates. In addition to traditional afternoon tea favourites, the railway is offering customers a Ploughman’s Lunch service and introducing Mediterranean and Indian-inspired menus. Indian food lovers can enjoy 2 Indian-inspired afternoon tea trains and 2 evening dining trains that will feature a variety of authentic Indian cuisine.

The railway’s afternoon tea train services begin with a Valentine’s Day lunchtime train on Sunday 15 February. It will also have tea trains for Mother’s Day (15 March), Easter Sunday (5 April), Spring (19 April), an Indian-inspired tea train on 3 May, Indian-cuisine evening train (18 May), early summer train (7 June), Ploughman’s Lunch special train on Father’s Day (21 June), Yorkshire Day (2 August), Mediterranean-inspired summer train (23 August), Indian-cuisine evening train (21 September) and an Indian-inspired tea train on 18 October.

The afternoon teas cost £52.50 per adult and £30 for children (aged 14 and under) and the price includes the rail ticket and a complimentary glass of fizz (or soft drink). Booking is essential to avoid disappointment.

Nick Keegan, Marketing and Fundraising Manager at Wensleydale Railway said: “Our catering team volunteers, led by Mo Park, have worked incredibly hard with our partner The Green Apple Tree Indian Restaurant of Northallerton to develop new and exciting menus for our customers to enjoy. We trialled an Indian afternoon tea and evening curry train last year. These proved very popular with customers, and we are pleased to announce an expanded Indian-inspired food offer this year.”

He added: “Our afternoon tea services are perfect for a special occasion, family celebrations, as a gift to a loved one or just a treat for you. Do something different this year and create unique memories on board our dining trains!”
