About

We kick off the summer holidays by letting dogs take over the railway! All dogs will get free entry! There is a 13-category dog show, and all dogs are welcome to enter.

Each one is made by one of our volunteers, and our judge will be a Crufts competitor!

In addition to our dog show, we will be providing unlimited train rides to everyone! Your dogs will be welcome on board all train services and throughout the railway.

Our buffet will be open, serving hot & cold food, drinks and snacks, and dog treats will be available.
