    Have just returned from a day out at Peak Rail.

    My wife booked me the two hour steam driving experience as a present for my 40th birthday.

    For anyone thinking of doing this/buying as a present, I would definately recommend it.

    Thanks to Sue and Ian at Darley Dale, Derek the driver and Dave the fireman for making it a day that I won't forget.

    Congratulations to Peak Rail , from the moment we arrived at 8.30am to driving away at 4pm all of the staff were welcoming, informative and nothing was too much trouble. They definately added to the whole experience! =D>

    Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
    I think I might have had a chat with you and Ian during the afternoon?
