Visit the Gruffalo at the Severn Valley Railway’s Engine House this February half-term

The Severn Valley Railway is all set for family fun this half-term, with appearances from the Gruffalo on 13 – 15 February.

Families can take an exciting heritage train ride out to The Engine House Highley and see the Gruffalo, who will be appearing at regular intervals throughout the day.

Lewis Maddox, visitor engagement manager said: “We are excited to have the Gruffalo visiting The Engine House Highley. Families will be able to travel in style by heritage train to Highley and meet their favourite character whilst creating memories together. Don’t forget to bring your camera!”

A variety of family tickets can be purchased online with travel from either Kidderminster or Bridgnorth.  Tickets include travel on a heritage train and timed entry ticket to meet the Gruffalo at The Engine House.

While at The Engine House, families can also let off steam in the outdoor play area, get hands on sorting mail in the travelling post office and take part in storytelling sessions.
