Important Notice concerning persons with reduced mobility.
We do our very best to welcome aboard all our passengers, especially those of you with mobility issues but at the same time we have to take your care and safety very seriously.
Please note: We are able to take wheelchairs on most of our heritage units.
If you yourself are a wheelchair user or if you are a carer for someone who is, please inform us prior to travel. We now have narrower wheelchairs more suited to our heritage coaches so you can enter by normal passenger doors . We regret that we cannot carry motorised vehicles on our trains.
The First-Class area, where cream teas are provided, has quite restricted space between seats and tables. We have to be sure that all passengers are easily able to leave the train in the unlikely event of an emergency. If you are at all uncertain of these matters you should view the areas before booking.
The Duty Guard has to be satisfied of these safety aspects otherwise boarding may not be permitted.
Because operational circumstances may vary, before making a booking, would all intending wheelchair passengers please contact our Business Administrator
