Autumn Adventures on the Vale of Rheidol Railway

As the long summer days give way to crisp mornings and golden evenings, autumn is one of the most magical times to enjoy a steam train journey through the Rheidol Valley. The trees take on stunning shades of orange, yellow, and gold, and the softer light makes the valley scenery even more spectacular.

This autumn, we’re making it easier than ever to enjoy a trip – with some special discounts for our passengers:
